Google, Netflix,Hotstar, TikTok and others to cease HD content in India over coronavirus

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a bid to contain the spread of the coronavirus in India, announced a nationwide lockdown for 21 starting March 25.

Except for the emergency services, transportation, and sale of essential food items, the rest of the commercial activities will cease to work till April 14. With most of the 1.3 billion people forced to stay home, several private employees are asked to work online, while children and college students are relying on the cellular internet for entertainment and e-classes to improve skill-sets.

This apparently will pose huge stress on the cellular infrastructure, as massive amounts of internet traffic may cause an outage and this would cut down communication between people and also they would not be able to get access to any government announcement on social media platforms.
