Sibal meets social media officials, calls for constructive approach
TT Correspondent |  |  15 Dec 2011

The Union Telecom Minister Kapil Sibal in a meeting with the representatives of the social networking sites on Thursday has emphasized on the constructive approach of these sites to empower the masses.

 

Sources said that the meeting was an extension to the government’s proposed move to screen the offensive content before they are put online. Thursday’s meeting is an effort to build a consensus with the operators to evolve a mechanism before a code of conduct is enforced.

 

Sibal is reported to have told the representatives of these social media sites that they should resist the temptation of converting these sites into a space for the elite only. He told them that India is a huge country and the marginalized people have the same right to use the internet content as the rich ones.

 

The representatives of these sites are believed to have told Sibal that they are in favour of an independent monitoring body to keep a check on the content.

 

In a press conference a few days back Sibal had raised the issue of the offensive and objectionable content being posted on these sites. He said that there should a mechanism in the form of a code of conduct so that people or religion against whom the content is posted don’ feel hurt.

Indians as a rule are inferior Indian nig gers unfit to talk about strategic matters, especially if it involves the White Master in any way, which it always does. That is why in his 'Mein Kampf' Adolf Hitler said "As for India, I would rather see India under the British than under any one else". It is not just that a handful of the British from half way around the world ruled India for centuries; a lot of other people from various countries did that for a thousand years before that. // A modern day Babar will start each day by killing a million Indians before breakfast every morning, though some think three million will be better (this number can be herded into fairly small extermination circles and then a neutron bomb exploded over them). // I am an Indian, but as far above the other Indians as they may be above cockroaches. // See InferiorIndianNiggersDOTblogspotDOTcom Satish Chandra
