India clamps down on Facebook, Twitter

[harpoon]

The new cyber laws are pretty tough. You can go to jail even for searching **** not to mention illegal downloading of movies and songs

Let me get this straight. Confusing headline aside, government is basically monitoring tweets and not "silencing" them. I don't like it but we don't live in perfect world. If this is related to terrorism or something, we will suffer it. And this is quite common across countries affected by terrorism. Some people really need to get a life.

monitoring tweets? lolzz whats next then? banning freedom of expression ? violating privacy of people too

Until now Social Networking was monitored only by IN & NTRO.But now even Telecom department will monitor it.That would lead to lesser loopholes.

Countries who are not monitoring social network sites are fools. This is one big threat that looms over the developing world.
