India has not been quiet since the Pahalgam terrorist attack. India is no longer in the mood to leave Pakistani leaders, cricketers and YouTubers and celebrities. The Government of India has previously blocked 16 YouTube channels, celebrities and cricketer’s social media accounts in India.
Can a government take such a step, what is the process?
India has made another digital strike against Pakistan. A country government can ban the social media account of citizens or celebrities of another country of their country. But this does not mean that the entire account is closed globally, but access to that country is blocked.
What is this restriction?
When a government blocks a social media account. So this means that users of the country cannot see the accounts of these people. By the way if any Pakistani cricketer’s Instagram account or X (Twitter) is banned in India. So this account is seen in India like “This contents is available in your country”.
