Indians got offended and didn’t take the comment made, lightly. They took it to social media to lash out at the statement. As the ratings of the app dropped, the criticism of the CEO and the app increased.
A user in iOS App Store wrote “First of all, I didn’t even want to give any freakin’ star to this app. Evan (CEO of Snapchat) shows how stupid he is by saying this. I bet 3/4th of his company is run by Indian employees. If he didn’t want to expand it to poor countries, then why is this app free? Why didn’t he put any charges on it?”
There were more comments on the play store like “Poor India and Spain need better than Snapchat”, “Goodbye, My Snapchat Account and Snap Inc. You’ll be the product of gone by era and derision”, and “Poor Evan Spiegel”.
