Regulation of video OTT platforms must says SC

I am pleased to share with all that yesterday supreme court reprimanded the Govt and told them to regulate obscene content. Youtube was specifically mentioned.

Is in line with our demand. I wonder if some of the supreme court judges are part of our circles with their names as citizens or via their family members.

It is great now with SC backing LC manager must escalate this demand to I&B and IT minister. Even netflix amazon prime jio hotstar must be regulated.

Censorship is not advisable as it will result in corruption. Government may consider issuing an Advisory for Self Regulation and prescribe fines for each category of OTT content. more  
I agree with what madam has posted. more  
Good job done by Court: hoping for its earlier implementation: more  
Govt. must act quickly to censor social media,OTT platforms. Its too late. more  
argument they show what is happening in reality. But there are many people in society who do not use abusive language, do not smoke and drink, and lead a good life. Why not base characters on such people? If media is a reflection of society, society is multiple reflection of media. Something bad happens in society and is shown in media in a glorified manner in detail, crores of people watch it and lakhs copy that bad in their lives. In this manner media multiplies the bad in society. Any bad incident should only be reported in news in short. No details should be given and no series / movies should be made on its details. Having huge influence on society, all media personnel should realise that they should show only righteous behaviour by all characters in their programmes to stop the spread of bad and to promote the spread of good in society. Media can play a very important role in shaping a good society for all. If media personnel do not take care of these things on their own, government should certainly step in and ban production, distribution and watching of all inappropriate content. more
