The Supreme Court has fined Rs 1 lakh each on internet giants like Google and Facebook for failing to file their replies on the steps taken by them to block videos of sexual offences on social sites.
It has been noted that despite a specific order to Yahoo, Facebook Ireland, Facebook India, Google India, Google Inc, Microsoft and WhatsApp, no documents about the progress made has been filed as yet.
The top court has directed them to file an affidavit before June 15 spelling out the measures taken to curb such videos. Meanwhile, the Registry will keep the amount in a fixed deposit for a short term.
