India bans more than 20 YouTube channels, including four of Pakistani origin, for alleged disinformation on subjects concerning 'national security and public order'
India's government has invoked"emergency powers" and banned the channels for allegedly posting fake news.India's government has said that it has banned 22 YouTube channels, including four of Pakistani origin, for disinformation on subjects concerning national security and public order, the latest such federal crackdown in the country.
The government, which invoked "emergency powers" under India's IT laws, said it had for the first time blocked 18 Indian YouTube channels, with previous actions focusing on accounts it said operated from neighbouring Pakistan. In December and January, the information ministry used similar emergency powers to block 55 channels on Alphabet Inc's YouTube and some Twitter and Facebook accounts.
India has been seeking tougher action from US tech giants including Google and Facebook on what it describes as fake news on their platforms.
