The Big Picture : Rules For Social Media

Amid the ongoing row with Twitter over the delay in the suspension of several accounts, the Union government on Thursday informed Parliament that it is in the process of amending rules pertaining to the Information and Technology sector so that social media platforms could be made more responsive and accountable to Indian laws. The government stated that the new rules will also ensure digital media platforms adhere to the Code of Ethics. The announcement came shortly after Union Law and IT Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad told the Rajya Sabha that the government will not shy away from acting against social media platforms if they are misused to spread fake news and incite violence. A spat has been going on between Twitter and the Indian government over a suspension list, which contains mention of over 1000 accounts that need to be suspended or at least blocked in India for spreading fake news and hatred on ongoing farmers’ protest in the country. The social media firm has refused to act against all the accounts mentioned in the list, stating that it will not suspend accounts that belong to the media, journalists and activists to uphold freedom of speech and expression. In this edition of The Big Picture we will analyse what kind of rules we need to have for social media.

Thank you Rajya Sabha TV for such discussions

Users - Self regularisation, Tech giants - Abide by the law, Govt - Has the right to intervene. Lets hold these tech giants responsible and accountable.

[@TheContrariann]

Whatever be the content but J Sai Deepak's English is like 😱

[@grapeshott]

In this debate it does not seem that obvious, but still there are no panelists from the social media platforms themselves, so it seems biased in favour of the government stand. Of course most of the people who watch this show are UPSC CSE/govt. exam aspirants, but still we need to hear the other side of the story too.
And there seem to be a lot of fans of J Sai Deepak Sir. Ha ha ha

[@grapeshott]

@Chandu Ch They should call someone from Twitter or Facebook. This video seems like a newspaper editorial, not a debate.
Btw, there is a Twitter India, and Indian employees are present too

But government also asked to block the accounts which didn't post this hashtag..Tweeter actually refused to block those accounts..Some of the things that Tweeter said were very unreasonably though..
