Facebook and Google remove 'offensive' India content

Written by Will Smith - Posted on Monday, 06 February 2012 07:47

Not only are China censoring web content ... but Google and Facebook too. They're going to remove "objectionable" material ... so what is that anyway?

"Facebook and Google say they have complied with an Indian court directive and removed "objectionable" material. They are among 21 web firms, including Yahoo and Orkut, facing a civil suit in Delhi accusing them of hosting material that may cause communal unrest.

A criminal case of similar allegations is due to be heard next month. Judges have threatened to block sites that fail to crack down on offensive content, but many firms say it is impossible to pre-filter material.

Late last year, Communications Minister Kapil Sibal met officials from Google, Facebook and other websites and said the government would introduce guidelines to ensure "blasphemous material" did not appear on internet."
