The habit of Indians to send good morning messages on WhatsApp every morning slows down the internet all over the world. IT experts world were trying to find out why the internet becomes slow in the world at a particular time and they came to know that behind this are crores of Indians who have a habit of saying good morning on WhatsApp.

As soon as you wake up this morning, when you must have picked up your mobile phone and checked Whatsapp, you must have also received good morning messages in some family group or friends' group. Or you must have sent similar messages to others, in which sometimes with a smiling little child among flowers or with some inspirational quote the message of Good Morning will be written. Every day, crores of people in India send similar good morning messages to each other on Whatsapp in different ways.

But do you know that these countless messages of good morning jam the internet? You must have noticed that when you use the internet on your mobile phone, many times the speed of the internet becomes slow and it takes a lot of time to load webpages. It happens to people across the world. IT experts all over the world were tired of solving this puzzle, but eventually, it was found that crores of Indians sending good morning messages to each other are responsible for this.

About 40 crore people use Whatsapp in India and when these people send good morning messages to each other in the morning, then there is a flood of these messages and the bandwidth of the internet starts decreasing all over the world, that is, the internet is unable to bear this burden given by Indians.

In the last 5 years in India, the number of people looking for pictures of good morning messages on the Internet has increased 10 times. And the number of people downloading them has increased 9 times. All these pictures are downloaded on your mobile phone and the storage of your mobile phone also gets full.

One way to avoid this problem is that you use apps that delete unwanted pictures and messages on your mobile phone at once. Another way is to go deep into this problem.

In India, these messages of good morning are often sent by older people. These people feel lonely at times and social media becomes the only way for them to connect with the outside world. Many times, the elders of the house are unable to step out of the home due to poor health. Or sometimes their family is far away from them. In such a situation, only the internet and social media support them. These people find any message on the internet, and they forward it to many people and then those who get these messages also forward them. By forwarding, a single message turns into millions of messages. At times, it also happens that people living in the same family do not even talk to each other but send good morning messages to each other on the family group.

Many times, the children of the house teach the elders to use apps like Whatsapp but they are not able to tell them which messages are not to be forwarded. Then gradually, this process of forwarding anything in the name of the message turns into an epidemic.

This epidemic of sending messages sometimes also becomes a medium for spreading fake news, through this propaganda videos and sometimes hatred are also spread. These different types of messages together create bitterness in society and also become the reason for a traffic jam on the internet.

It is a matter of fun that the hackers have to put a lot of effort to slow down the internet. Hackers from countries like North Korea and Russia work hard day and night for this but the people of India block the internet by just sending good morning messages.

Now let us see how you can avoid this addiction to social media and the internet because this addiction has started from the children of the house to the elders. The elders keep fasts on festivals very easily but they too are not able to fast digitally.
