Kapil Sibbal's press conference on objectionable content on social networking sites ~ 6 Dec , 2011

Union communications and IT minister Kapil Sibal's demand from social network sites, like Facebook and Google, to prescreen user content from India and remove disparaging, inflammatory or defamatory content before it goes online has received bitter criticism on the social networking site Twitter.




Kafila has started a campaign asking people to make 'Kapil Sibal' is an idiot.
A number of retweets and comments on Twitter came pouring in on the demand made by him saying "Kapil Sibal is an Idiot". @over_rated retweeted, "The next task Kapil Sibal is going to undertake is to enumerate the grammatical errors in a Chetan Bhagat 'novel.'"

"Dare to think beyond Arindam Chaudhuri: Kapil Sibal," tweeted @fakingnews.

"So Kapil Sibal wants to censor the internet coz he came across a defamatory page on Sonia Gandhi.. whats next ban social media?"

"RT @Dosabandit Hey Kapil Sibal, why this kolaveri da? Take it easy macha! Chumma don't get angry, grow up."

@Joydas Joy says, "Kapil Sibal Asks Google, Facebook to Scan User Content" - "Google, Facebook asks Kapil Sibal to Scan Brains."

Hundreds of say its laughable "on how the mind of the great Kapil #Sibal works. Oh wait... It doesn't!"

@Swamy39 Kapil Sibal now wants to censor social media websites and blogs. What could be done with such idiots who r degrading our democracy?

The social networking site is still flooding with negative responses on Kapil Sibal "behaving like a sicko? Give us some freedom atleast to post whatever we feel...."
