Every now and then, several types of trends go viral on social media. Now, the latest one on the list is the "click here" trend. If you aren't aware of it, allow us to explain it to you. When users upload images to the microblogging platform, the "click here" indicates the "alt text" or "alternative text" area on the left, as denoted by the downward pointing diagonal arrow. This feature allows users to annotate photos with text. It helps people with visual impairments comprehend the image by using text-to-speech recognition.
As the trend went viral, Delhi Police took X to share a post on it. They shared an image, which reads "click here". Then, in the image description, they added, "Unknown links ko click karoge toh scam ho sakta hai (If you click unknown links, you can get scammed)." (Also Read: What is ‘Click here’?
