India Tells Troops to Delete Chinese Apps From Phones Amidst Tracking Fears

The Indian Defence Ministry has advised troops stationed on the Chinese border to uninstall Chinese-made apps from their smartphones. The advisory included a list of 42 Android and iOS apps that officials advised soldiers to remove. The list included well-known apps such as Weibo, Wechat, UC Browser, and CM Browser. There is no general ban on Chinese products in India, nor of Indian products in China. Indian authorities previously banned the use of Huawei and ZTE devices in the same border region.
