No more obscene content on OTT: Netflix, Facebook, Instagram, Youtube to be regulated in India

The Supreme Court of India has taken a strong stance against pornographic content being shared on popular OTT and social media platforms. Hearing a Public Interest Litigation (PIL), the court has issued a notice to the Central Government, asking for immediate action to regulate and ban such content across platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, ULLU, ALTT, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and X (formerly Twitter). The move comes amid growing concerns about the easy availability of obscene material online and its impact on society, especially the youth.
