An Indian parliamentary panel has demanded Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg apologize within three days for restricting posts by Prime Minister Modi, or face a recommendation to revoke Meta's "safe harbor" protection in India.
The Indian Parliament's Sub-Committee on Communications and Information Technology on Wednesday demanded that Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg apologize within three days for the company's previous restriction of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Facebook posts. If Meta fails to apologize, the panel will recommend revoking the company's "safe harbor" immunity in India. Revoking this protection would make Meta legally liable for user-generated content on its platform, which legal experts say would make it almost impossible for Meta to operate in India. Joel Kaplan, Meta's President of Global Affairs, has already apologized to India's Minister for Information Technology, Ashwini Vaishnaw, for the "error" of restricting Modi's posts, but Nishikant Dubey, the chairman of the parliamentary panel, insisted on an apology from Zuckerberg himself.
