Terror Groups Use Gaming Apps for Covert Communication in J&K

Terror Groups Use Gaming Apps for Covert Communication in J&K

Terrorist groups in Jammu and Kashmir are now using online games like PUBG to talk to their recruits.

These games let people chat with each other, and terrorists use this to send messages without getting caught.

They are even radicalizing minors through in-game chats.

The apps often have special ways to hide what they are saying, like encryption.

People are also using secret internet connections (VPNs) to download these games.

This makes it harder for authorities to track them, especially when combined with the use of virtual SIM cards, which allow for anonymous calls.
