Draw up norms to have control over Google, Facebook, Twitter: Mohandas Pai

BENGALURU: The likes of Google, Facebook and Twitter have become big monopolies and time has come for governments around the world to have a control over them, information technology industry veteran T V Mohandas Pai said on Monday.

The former Chief Financial Officer of InfosysNSE -1.17 % said the government should through its probe agencies investigate the WhatsApp snooping scandal, come out with a report and place it before the people.

“Today platforms like Google, Facebook, Twitter have become big monopolies and they are trying to sensor and monitor what is happening, (and) they are trying to control the minds of citizens globally”, Pai told PTI.
