Title of Speech: Enforcement of Cyber Law
Speaker: Hon’ble Mr. K.G. Balakrishnan
Event where speech delivered: National Seminar on the Enforcement of Cyber Law at New Delhi
Speech Date: 2010-05-8
Statutes Applied: Information Technology Act, 2000
Case Note / Description :

The Information Technology Act was amended a few months ago and Section 79 now provides a defence for ‘Network Service Providers’ who can demonstrate that they were not aware of the offensive content circulated through their services. While the limitation of liability was necessary to ensure that companies are not discouraged from providing internet access, the original problem has not been solved. More and more persons are being victimized through the digital medium and it is our moral responsibility to tackle the misuse of information technology.
