It's a big day for the future of freedom of expression on social networking sites. 22 social networking sites including Facebook, Google, Yahoo and Microsoft have to submit a compliance report today on removing all so-called objectionable content. The trial court deadline ends today. The sites had been asked to remove the broadly anti-religious and anti-social contents on the basis of a petition by a Muslim cleric. The government too has threatened criminal proceedings if action is not taken. There's a similar case on in the Delhi High Court that had threatened to censor social networking sites if a way to pre-moderate content could not be found.
