In a letter, the Union IT minister says Facebook has been used by ‘radical elements’ whose sole aim is to ‘destroy social order, to recruit people and to assemble them for violence’.
The focus is often on removing terrorist and violent extremist content. However, that alone will only tackle a symptom of radicalisation, not the root causes.
The last time this matter flared up was when Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, in a very similar directive in April, called for the relocation of stray dogs in the capital.
Finance ministry says the proposed revamp will focus on structural reforms, rate rationalisation & ease of living, & will be deliberated upon in the coming weeks.
The project is meant to be a ‘protective shield that will keep expanding’, the PM said. It is on the lines of the ‘Golden Dome’ announced by Trump, it is learnt.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
Face Book is like electronic media. Content is given by users rather than by Owner. Subject FB to press laws like any other print or electronic media in India. Why bother to complain and give Zukerberg so much importance?
Ravi Prasadji should realise for too long the media and narrative in education has been outsourced by earlier dispensation to people who were more interested in presenting a narrative that
1 ) HINDUS ARE TO BE DIVIDED AND RULED
2) PERPETRATORS OF VIOLENCE BE SHOWN AS VICTIMS
3) HINDUS TO BE PROSELYTIZED AND FUNDS WERE RECEIVED BY SO CALLED LEFT LEANING LIBERALS WHO WERE ACTUALLY SUPPORTED BY CHURCH.
4 ) EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS RUN BY CHURCH WERE ENCOURAGED . WERE EVEN HINDU CHILDREN WERE EXPOSED TO CHRISTIAN MISSIONARY BRAINWASHING.
5) ” THE CHAPPAI ” ITSELF HAS WRITTEN AN ARTICLE WERE A RELIGIOUS BOOK IN ONE HAND BY IAS ASPIRANTS IS APPRECIATED . IT’S A DANGEROUS TREND IF ALL ASPIRANTS FROM DIFFERENT RELIGIONS START DOING THAT EDUCATION AND SCIENTIFIC OUTLOOK WILL GO FOR A TOSS.
HOWEVER THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA EVEN PRO DEVELOPMENT AND SCIENTIFIC VOICES ARE BEING HEARD. ALSO THERE IS HUGE SUPPORT FOR POPULATION CONTROL.
THESE FEW ANARCHIC MESSENGERS WILL BE DEFEATED BUT IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME. AS SUCH RAVI PRASADJI WE SHOULD CONTINUE TO PRESENT FACTS TO DISL ODGE FAKE PROPAGANDA. I APPRECIATE YOUR SINCERE EFFORTS TOWARDS THAT. REMEMBER HOW ANTI CAA PROTESTORS WERE ENCOURAGED WHEN RAPE MURDER AND CONVERSIONS OF HINDUS ARE BEING CARRIED OUT IN pakistan bangladesh afghanistan.
Facebook is also “communal.” Also Hinduphobic and lends its platform to Islamic hardliners who when they are not complaining against so-called ‘bhakts’, are routinely ‘reporting’ the ‘bhakts’ for responding to slurs thrown at them in posts and comments against their religion and ideology. The Facebook staff is overwhelmingly left-liberal. They’re basically fundamentalists and partisan. Well-established liberal sickos.
Not just Facebook but all social media giants are overtly in favour of the Left. And this phenomenon is not unique to India but is prevalent across the world. The social media giants have become propaganda tools for the Left liberal establishment.
Am sure everyone remembers Twitter CEO Mr. Jack Dorsey’s egregious act of holding an overtly anti-Brahmin poster and posing for a pic with members of “progressive” organizations.
I don’t think we must be scared of the social media. At the end of the day, among the more than the billion views on these platforms there are bound to be some which you may not like.
These ‘news’ and ‘fake news’ on the digital media will vanish once we start ignoring them. It is a process of learning as most of us in these times ignore the traditional media of News papers and TV, to the extend that they are fighting a daily battle for survival.
The strong and informing media will survive. That is good enough for our democracy.

Everyone is anti FB now in the political establishment. Why not ban Facebook and look alikes for 2 years and see how disturbances come down in India ?

Try it out.
Err. Ravi Shankerji, Facebook loves Trump and after taking a stake in RIL, Facebook loves Modi.
But, you still have to write a letter to deflect attention from Ankhi Das, Time and WSJ. Tch Tch.
