India plans to require smartphone manufacturers to share source code with the government and make multiple software modifications, a move that has sparked private opposition from tech giants like Apple (AAPL.US) and Samsung, Reuters reported, citing sources. The measures include 83 security standards, which also require companies to report to the government when pushing major software updates, the report, citing four informed sources and Reuters' verification of confidential government and industry documents, showed. These tech firms argued that such security standards are unprecedented globally and pose a risk of leaking proprietary information. India is the world's second-largest smartphone market, with nearly 750 million mobile devices. AASTOCKS Financial News Website: www.aastocks.com |
