CHENNAI: A public interest litigation in the Madras High Court has sought directions to the Union Government to develop a mechanism to regulate YouTube channels. The trial court, which accepted the public interest litigation filed by V Parthiban on Monday, adjourned the hearing for a week to allow the plaintiff in the public interest litigation to sue necessary parties as defendants. Government counsel pointed out that the plaintiff in the public interest litigation had not sued the Union Government, which regulates YouTube, as a defendant. Parthiban wanted the court to direct YouTube to function in accordance with Indian law. “Once objectionable content is uploaded, YouTube does not monitor it until someone reports it. By the time YouTube decides to remove the content, the damage is already done,” Parthiban said.
