According to the App Annie report1, India has the second-largest number of mobile app downloads in the world, overtaking the US and trailing only China. The report further states that, the app downloads grew by 215% in 2017 and, on an average, Indians use more than 40 apps in a month, while having a total base of close to 80 apps. In India, the access to the internet is driven by mobile and there is intense competition amongst the internet content providers and app developers to provide, to Indian consumers, different types of content and services ranging from audio and video streaming to online ticketing to navigation services and more. Some of these apps come pre-loaded on the mobile devices, while others are downloaded from the various app stores and sometimes even sideloaded2 by consumers themselves from other sources. An analysis of the consumer behaviour highlights the ease of downloading and sideloading - consumers frequently download or sideload their preferred apps from the various app stores, the internet or by sharing apk files with their friends and family.

  • Combatting Online Hate Speech and Disinformation Targeting Religious Communities Written Submission 21 October 2020
    USCIRF Submission – Combatting Online Hate Speech and Disinformation Targeting Religious Communities Written Submission 21 October 2020 Shakuntala Banaji, PhD. Professor of Media, Culture and Social Change, Department of Media and Communications, London School of Economics and Political Science The socio-political context of hate speech in India 1. In India and the diaspora, widespread social prejudice against certain groups such as Muslims, Christians and Dalits – embodied by a view of these communities as underserving of citizenship, sub-human, lower than animals, enemies of Hinduism, dangers to the Indian nation, dirty, polluted by meat-eating, promiscuous and treacherous/prone to terrorism – drives both socioeconomic and socio-spatial discrimination and the spread of malicious, orchestrated misinformation, disinformation and hateful material on WhatsApp, Facebook and other social media platforms. In India, these “rumours” frequently acts as triggers and focal points of equally co-ordinated mob violence that is later characterised by members of the ruling party and by BJP and RSS-sympathetic media outlets as inter-communal rioting or spontaneous and proportionate responses to “hurt Hindu religious sentiments”. 2. The fact that socio-spatial discrimination and exclusion ensure “ghettoes” and “ghettoization of urban and rural space” makes it easier for members of upper and middle caste Hindu mobs to gather and target residential areas with concentrations of Dalit, Muslim and/or Christian homes. The troubling exclusion and discrimination

  • Digital Disinformation and Election Integrity: Benchmarks for Regulation
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Digital Disinformation and Election Integrity: Benchmarks for Regulation SAHANA UDUPA Sahana Udupa ([email protected]) is Professor of Media Anthropology at the Ludwig- Maximilians-Universität (LMU) Munich, Germany. Vol. 54, Issue No. 51, 28 Dec, 2019 As critical events in democratic life, elections pose extraordinary challenges to the autonomy of public opinion. This article outlines some of the regulatory challenges that have emerged in the wake of digital media expansion in India, and argues that the self-regulatory mechanism that was developed during the 2019 national elections is insufficient in addressing problems of online extreme speech, algorithmic bias, and proxy campaigns. Building on the electoral management model proposed by Netina Tan, it suggests that a critical overview of ongoing efforts can help determine the readiness of Indian regulatory structures to respond to digital disruptions during elections and emphasises the need for a co-regulatory mechanism. It is commonplace to acknowledge that political parties and politicians intensify their efforts to influence public mood and voter loyalties during elections. Democracies, then, not only become a theatre for maverick speech and public performances, but also a testing ground for regulatory interventions. The expansion of digital media in India in the last decade has placed new pressures on regulatory efforts at containing malicious rumours and disinformation during elections. These tensions reflect similar developments around digital social media and electoral processes around the world. Globally, digital campaigns have raised concerns around data privacy and microtargeting, as well as the use of bots and ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 algorithmic sorting as new ways to sabotage political discourse (Ong and Cabanes 2018; Bradshaw and Howard 2017).

  • INTRODUCTION This Newsletter Brings to You the Key Intellectual
    INTRODUCTION This newsletter brings to you the key intellectual property and related updates in India from the third quarter of 2019. Of particular significance, the High Court of Delhi in a patent dispute initiated by Novartis clarified that an infringement action is not maintainable against a revoked patent, even though an appeal is pending disposal against the revocation order. In another dispute concerning Juggernaut Books, a digital book publishing house from India, the Court revisited the principles of ‘purposeful availment’ for determining the territorial jurisdiction of the Court for infringement and passing off caused by a website originating from a foreign source. We also cover the tiff between international social media platform TikTok and Indian social media platform ShareChat offering content in regional languages, that puts a question mark on the status of TikTok as an internet intermediary under the IT law. On the regulatory side, we saw the notification of the Patent Amendment Rules, 2019, which amended the procedures of patent prosecution actions before the Patent Office. The Copyright Office by way of a public notice clarified certain uses of sound recordings as fair dealings under the copyright law. Additionally, the government issued draft Geographical Indication Amendment Rules inviting comments from stakeholders. The above-mentioned updates are discussed below. www.induslaw.com Page 1 of 8 Ban galore | Delhi | Hyderabad | Mumbai NOTABLE CASES Novartis AG & Anr. v. Natco Pharma Limited1 In this judgement, a single judge of the Delhi High Court (the “Court”) ruled that no infringement action is maintainable in respect of an unregistered or revoked patent. Background: This patent infringement suit was instituted by the Swiss pharma major, Novartis AG (“Novartis”) seeking permanent injunction, damages, rendition of accounts and delivery up, in respect of its granted patented drug titled “Novel Pyrimidine Compounds and Compositions as Protein Kinase Inhibitors” (“Suit Patent”), against Natco Pharma Limited (“Natco”).
