💨 Abstract

Social media platform X has started blocking 8,000 accounts in India following government orders. The orders demand the blocking of international news organizations and prominent users without specifying violations. X argues these orders amount to censorship and intends to withhold only the specified accounts in India. The company is exploring legal avenues while encouraging impacted users to seek court relief. Despite disagreements, X aims to keep the platform accessible in India.
