I want to know that using a 3rd party app like walastseen or whatseen for a short period once in a year will be considered illegal as per section 354D of ipc. These apps just automate and present the online presence of the target user in a table format. So is this legal or not?
I told about this to my friend and later that friend threatened me to tell it to the target user (another friend). Target user is the person on whome i ws checking if she is onpine or not. I do not intent to harm her nor say anything but when i told about this she got angered and told it is wrong. She forgave me but im worried from using such apps. I will refrain and never do it but still i want to know what happened is legal or not? Also foes it fall under cyberstalking as per sectiom 354D of ipc?
A.Dear Client,
Using third-party apps like Walastseen or Whatseen to track someone's online presence without their consent could potentially violate privacy laws. Section 354D of the Indian Penal Code deals with cyberstalking and online harassment, and using such apps to monitor someone's activity without their knowledge may be considered an invasion of privacy.
While you may not have intended harm, it's essential to respect others' privacy rights. If the target user feels uncomfortable or harassed by such monitoring, it could lead to legal consequences. It's advisable to refrain from using such apps and to be aware of the potential legal implications associated with unauthorized tracking or monitoring of someone's online activities. Always prioritize ethical and legal considerations in your actions to avoid any legal repercussions.
Thankyou
