WB CID sent letter to Facebook over the picture case

          Well, we didn’t think that the case would be dragged this much long. West Bengal Govt. did not stop only by arresting Ambikesh Mahapatra for the alleged picture, now it is learned that Govt. has instructed CID to write a letter to Facebook authority asking them about the main source of the picture. And CID did so. They wrote a letter addressing Facebook authority asking them about the source of the picture & the IP addresses of people who shared the picture. And they will also ask them to remove such picture from circulating in the social network. At the CM’s of India meet W.B. Finance Minister Amit Mitra (who went as a representative of Mamata Banerjee) told that content like this should be censored. At the end of 2011 we heard that Kapil Sibal (Central IT Minster) raised his voice about the same concern. But at that time our very own CM did not respond anything. But now she is working so actively, is it biasness only because of something defaming about her posted online.

          We all know that Facebook runs of US laws but being sensitive to matters which may create disturbance in communal harmony or political peace, they will surely respond something on this matter (Till now we got no response of the letter written to them). Amit Mitra added more that such type of internet freedom is a threat against country. And from this statement made by him we are sure that CM & CID jointly will drag this case more long.
          Now netizens of Kolkata must get alert!!

• Anyone of you who have shared the picture or liked the picture undo everything immediately.
• Delete the image from your wall or untag yourself from the image or if you see the picture in anyone’s profile just report it (by clicking report image). And tell it to your friends too.

This is to play safe, because no one knows how much this case will be dragged & may be you are the next victim to be arrested.
          We feel that by doing this much of drama is just highlighting the image & nothing else. People will never stop making such cartoons & sharing. And if our Govt. is thinking that by doing this they will be able to scare people, they are totally thinking the wrong. This will ignite the hatred for them. And you must have observed that mush more vulgar pictures than this is available on the internet. And this particular picture was not a viral one. If the issue had just been neglected the image would have been just be trashed in a short span of time. Majority of Indians are telling this step as a ridiculous one & one type of autocracy. There is nothing so serious about the image.

Now how to catch the main offender who has created the image?

This is the main concern of CM. The main subject for the letter to Facebook was driven by this. Ambikesh Mahapatra has said that he did not create the image; he just shared it with friends. Now Facebook has to catch the IP address of the creator & the prime sharer. But if it happens that the creator used a secure process to share this then how could he be caught? Secure process means to if he/she has used proxy services to open an account in Facebook or he/she has used VPN or TOR network to do all this thing then how could he be caught? Answer is almost impossible and this requires a lot of investigation & money matter. Doesn’t our CM think that rather than doing these she should indulge herself in some other useful works?
