Twitter loses immunity in India over user-generated content
Al Jazeera
Statement in court is the first time Modi’s government has officially said that Twitter has lost its immunity.
Twitter Inc. no more enjoys liability protection against user-generated content in India as the microblogging giant has failed to comply with new IT rules, the Indian government has said in a court filing. The statement is the first time Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government has officially said that Twitter has lost its immunity after repeatedly criticising the company for non-compliance. The dispute and the public spat has raised concern that United States-based firms will find it difficult to do business amid a more stringent regulatory environment.More Related News
