Use of social media for dissent may have disastrous effect: CJI Chandrachud

IndiaTimes Friday, 1 December 2023
Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud warns about the disastrous impact of civil rights groups using private corporation-owned social media platforms for dissent activism. These unaccountable mega entities are becoming repositories of power, taking on the role of governments in regulating speech. Justice Chandrachud highlights the danger of social media platforms being relatively unregulated and cites the example of the Myanmar military's use of social media for ethnic cleansing. He also mentions the overwhelming distortion of truth caused by troll armies and disinformation campaigns on social media.
