Twitter suspends verified Pak Defense handle for faking Indian picture
Twitter deleted Pakistan's verified Defence handle after they used a fake picture of an Indian girl.

The picture, which showed a woman holding a placard giving out message of the "secular values of our constitution," was morphed and distorted, which sent out a completely negative message against India.


Pakistan's defence handle @defencepk, however, deleted the picture some time later.

Earlier, in September, Pakistan used a fake picture to establish a false narrative.

Pakistan's Ambassador to the United Nations Maleeha Lodhi, in her right to reply to External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj's speech at the UN, showed pictures of Palestinian victims and tried to pass them off as 'evidence' of atrocities on Kashmiris.

The picture, used by Pakistan's Ambassador to the UN, was reported by a number of media outlets as that of Rawia Abu Joma'a, a 17-year-old girl injured in Israeli airstrikes on Gaza city in 2014. Rawia's picture was taken by award winning photographer Heidi Levine.

And keeping the bad stuff in mind -- Carl Pei on Friday took to the OnePlus forum to post that OnePlus 5T is going to get a major software update in Dec, and that will give a massive boost to the phone's camera setup, especially in its low light photography. It seems, OnePlus -- going by its tagline "Never settle" doesn't probably wants to rest for now. OnePlus 5T has been off to a blazing start, not just in India but all over the world. The company managed to sell out all the units within just 5 minutes, at least that's what the company claims. The OnePlus 5T's next sale is set for Nov 28. Wit...

Google on Thursday announced to rename its year old Android Wear brand to Wear OS. To simplify, Android Wear will henceforth be called Wear OS by Google. The new brand name for say makes a little more sense than Android Wear because alongside Android users, there are also some handful iPhone users who users Android watches. Looks like the new branding Wear OS will eventually show up on some of the watches and mobile applications in the forthcoming weeks. "So as the watch industry gears up for another Baselworld next week, we're announcing a new name that better reflects our technology, vision, and most important of all-the people who wear our watches. We're now Wear OS by Google, a wearables operating system for everyone," notes Google. To recall, the Android Wear brand was initially introduced just a year ago, in 2014. The change in name of the brand is mainly because, these wearable devices are not just by Android users but by iPhone users as well. Hence, naming...
