Description
This session will consider the following topics:
- Elusive safe harbour: deciphering the contours of due diligence obligations to be carried out by intermediaries in order to avail legal insulation for third party content.
- From timebound takedowns to enabling identification of first originator of information: talking all things accountability, legitimate state action, curbs on free speech and right to privacy.
- Navigating legal complexities in the face of a labyrinth of jurisdiction specific laws - is the time ripe for harmonisation of laws?
- Categorization of intermediaries (including social media intermediaries) – need for a risk-based approach?
- Regulatory shift towards personal liability regime for the officers of intermediaries: a desirable move?
