New Information Technology IT act 2021 Explained

This video is on information technology IT rules, 2021. What effects will it have on various social media (fb, google, twitter, whatsapp), digital media and OTT platforms. How will it empower the users, like you and me to hold these companies accountable for the content they host. I will also discuss why Media needs to be regulated, and what could be the potential harm or dangerous impact digital media can have on humans, society and nation.

Government should create an independent body under judiciary to deal with issues and Grievance officer of IT companies. Government should not be the authoritative controlling body here. That can lead to misuse of this new rules.

The provisions of the new Rules were very well explained.
However, the absence of explanation as to why the Rules are being opposed, presents only one side of the issue.
Explanation on the debate of 'Privacy vs Security' would have made this a holistic and balanced video.

Technically, 'Tracing the Originator' without breaking encryption is not feasible.
Thus, 'Tracing the Originator' would imply an end to 'End-to-End Encryption'.
This is perfectly summarized in WhatsApp's statement - "We cannot trace the originator of any message, unless we trace the originator of every message."

So, is it proportional to track each and every message, to trace the originators of problematic content?
How do we balance the needs of Security, while ensuring the Privacy?
Where exactly do we draw a line between what's allowed and what's not allowed?
Without comprehensive Data Protection Law, how much leeway these new Rules provide to social media companies?

This is a grey area, and there are no right or wrong answers, but this is definitely worth a healthy debate.

The new IT Rules are necessary, but in their present form, we consider they are disproportionate.

I am unable to understand why twitter can't follow something as basic as putting a grievance, compliance officer in India. Why the people, govt have to ask someone in India and they refer to US on some compliance related info.
Every company follows it in any European country.
Will someone sitting in US take decisions on what is good or bad and we will hv no jurisdiction as a nation on this?
There's definitely something fishy with Twitter who is not following it.

[sivacharan]

These rules will take over the freedom of speech (expression) of an individual.And I don't like it

[enoshthomas]

Best channel for UPSC current affairs. What a brilliant teacher you are... Great sir 🙏🙏🇮🇳

[piyushshukla]

This act is very very important. People aren't understanding the gravity of the disturbance this act has cost to these big tech. This will make them invest into themselves and make a better platform which they don't want to do as they can invest the same amount of money into 'updates and innovation' which will make them more attractive and more users hence more money.

Point is, no one wants to be accountable but everyone of these big tech wants to mint money as much as possible from the massive population of India which is not ethical at all.

Thanks for the video, I'll share this as much as I can.
