Social media community guidelines are important, but not perfect in emerging markets

On September 5, the High Court bench of Justice Md. Mozibur Rahman Miah and Justice Kamrul Hossain Mollah, during a public interest litigation hearing, accused BTRC of being reluctant to remove defamatory, viral content from social media. The bench, citing the media’s attempt to assassinate Pori Moni’s character, also went so far as saying that the BTRC “can instantly stop defamatory materials from spreading online. But it doesn't -- as if it enjoys them” and waits for specific High Court directives before taking any action. In response, Posts and Telecom Minister Mustafa Jabbar said that BTRC does not have the power and capability to block any content from the platforms. “The government is helpless,” said Jabbar in a press briefing, adding that Facebook and YouTube often do not respond to Bangladesh’s requests to remove defamatory content that do not violate their community guidelines.
