Starting a new company should be an exciting time, but for many, it quickly turns into a headache of unwanted sales calls and spam emails. A recent viral post brought this issue to light, showing how a person received a flood of promotional messages almost immediately after registering their business on a government portal.
This has raised serious questions about data privacy and whether the information submitted for business registration is being misused. While the government clarified that they only share data with the banks a user chooses, many people are still concerned about how private companies are getting this information so quickly.
The ongoing public debate highlights the need for better data protection and clear rules to prevent this kind of data misuse, especially as more government services move online.
