Govt creating frameworks that cast safety, trust as obligation on platforms: MoS IT

New Delhi: The government has been developing regulatory frameworks that cast safety and trust as obligation on digital platforms, Union Minister Rajeev Chandrasekhar said on Tuesday, adding that this approach will continue to be finetuned going forward. Today’s world is dealing increasingly with complexity, commercial power, toxicity, and harms that have crept into the internet because innovation was allowed to go “so far ahead” without creating proper guardrails, the Minister of State for IT and Electronics said at the India Internet Governance Forum — IIGF’23.
