Meta warned of losing legal protection over PM Modi reel row

Meta Platforms Inc. warned that it could lose its 'safe harbour' legal protections in India over a controversy involving a reel featuring Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The company's communication indicated a potential loss of immunity from liability for third-party content posted on its platforms. This situation raises questions about the implications for social media companies operating in India and their responsibility for user-generated content. The 'safe harbour' provision shields platforms from legal action for content posted by their users.
