- movingahead 15y agoI am pretty sure Google, Facebook and others will appeal in a higher court if this lower court does go ahead with blocking. There are clear provisions in the Indian IT act which prevents the website from any damage until it cooperates with the government and removes the objectionable material. There has been a huge debate in the recent past whether the categorization of content as 'objectionable' can be done by the Govt. or whether it should be left to courts.
