Social media sites are targeted by explicitly authoritarian regimes like China and pseudo liberal countries like India. It is time the International community knocked some sense into these countries. Best would be to disconnect illiberal regimes from the Internet. It would immediately solve the job loss problem of the US in off shoring and throttle the flood of intellectual property that is freely consumed by these countries on the net.


Much of the export trade in hard currency that India manages is for software. The software industry flourished in India because the government understood very little about it and could not strangle it in time...This would be excellent opportunity for the US and Europe to hit back by banning all software imports from India as the country is well on its way to revealing its anti democratic instincts...


The costs of software would go up, but then it would be for everyone and no particular country would be affected competitively.


It is important for the West to fight for liberty and freedom and be especially wary of pretenders like India who have been wallowing in the caste system for 2500 years and have created another caste system of establishment vs the rest in this modern day and age.


The establishment in India is day dreaming that the social media companies are doing business in India and therefore have no choice....the government would like them to proactively remove all content that does not speak well of the government...like the captive government television channels and radio....they are using the fig leaf of "objectionable anti social content" to torment the social media companies....I am surprised that Obama and the EU has not woken up to this brazen attack on freedom by their friends in the Indian government so far...
