Description

This session will consider the following topics:

  1. 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. 
  2. 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. 
  3. Navigating legal complexities in the face of a labyrinth of jurisdiction specific laws - is the time ripe for harmonisation of laws? 
  4. Categorization of intermediaries (including social media intermediaries) – need for a risk-based approach?
  5. Regulatory shift towards personal liability regime for the officers of intermediaries: a desirable move?
