India-Pakistan Tensions Live: X To Block Over 8,000 Accounts
Social media platform X (formerly Twitter) will block over 8,000 accounts in India following the government's order to do so, the Elon Musk-run company said. While X agreed to block the accounts, it protested against the order citing fundamental right of free speech.
The platform has been flooded by posts, images and videos regarding the ongoing India-Pakistan tensions. Many have been flagged as fake news and disinformation, meant to mislead users.
Statement from X:
"X has received executive orders from the Indian government requiring X to block over 8,000 accounts in India, subject to potential penalties including significant fines and imprisonment of the company’s local employees. The orders include demands to block access in India to accounts belonging to international news organizations and prominent X users. In most cases, the Indian government has not specified which posts from an account have violated India's local laws. For a significant number of accounts, we did not receive any evidence or justification to block the accounts. To comply with the orders, we will withhold the specified accounts in India alone. We have begun that process. However, we disagree with the Indian government’s demands. Blocking entire accounts is not only unnecessary, it amounts to censorship of existing and future content, and is contrary to the fundamental right of free speech. This is not an easy decision, however keeping the platform accessible in India is vital to Indians’ ability to access information."
