Delhi High Court Directs Social Media Firms to Remove Defamatory Video on Ramdev - (24 Oct 2019)

MEDIA AND COMMUNICATION

Delhi High Court has directed social media platforms Facebook, Google, its subsidiary YouTube, and Twitter to forthwith remove, block or disable on a global basis links to a video containing defamatory allegations against yoga guru Ramdev. The Court held that merely 'geo-blocking' or disabling access to the defamatory content to viewers from India, as agreed to by the social media platforms, would not be sufficient as users residing can gain access to it by other means.
