Yet Again a Hit on Tweets.
~Preet
The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) issued instructions to remove some tweets from Twitter under Section 69 (A) of the Information Technology Act of 2000. (Microblogging Site). Twitter has filed a petition with the Karnataka High Court, saying that many of the banning orders violate Section 69 (A) of the Act.
According to Section 69 (A) of the IT Act, the corporation "failed to comply with the directives on repeated occasions," according to the Ministry. Twitter provided a list of over 80 accounts and messages that it has banned in response to a government request in 2021. Twitter believes that the Ministry's reasons for flagging various accounts and messages are either "over-broad and arbitrary" or "disproportionate." According to Twitter, some of the information marked by the ministry may correspond to official accounts of political parties, and removing them may violate the Right to Free Expression.
Most countries have enacted legislation requiring Internet service providers or web hosting service providers, as well as other intermediaries, to collaborate with law enforcement agencies in certain instances. Cooperation between technology businesses and law enforcement organisations is widely recognised as an essential component of combating cybercrime and other crimes committed utilising computer resources. These include hacking, digital impersonation, and data theft. Because of the potential for abuse, law enforcement officials are always working to limit the negative repercussions of utilising the medium.
