Twitter Please Do Not Censor Our UIDAI And Privacy Related Tweets

The best part of a democratic setup is that in case of conflicting viewpoints both sides get their respective chance to put forward their version. A similar concept applies to cyberspace where both the sides of an aspect must be freely available to the public for their appraisal.

We have been observing for the past many months that the expression “UIDAI” is subject to great deal of search engine optimisation (SEO). This term is also subject to great deal of “results censorship”.

Twitter is a platform that is known for its micro blogging and community information sharing. We have been using Twitter for some period of time. Although our experience with Twitter is great yet there is a single point where we are seriously dissatisfied, rather concerned.

Like many other places, even at Twitter our use of the expression “UIDAI” is mercilessly censored. A dominant majority of our tweets mentioning UIDAI never appears before the community for their perusal. This is so even if the same is a part of the title of news/Blog item or separately mentioned by us.

We are aware of the spam, over capacity, and other aspects pertaining to twitter and our posts are not disappearing due to these or any other technical reason.

Twitter please do not “censor” our UDIAI and Privacy related tweets.

What Made Aadhar Project Of India Unconstitutional?

The Aadhar Project of India has once again tested the lack of data protection and privacy rights in India. Data protection and privacy laws must be enacted by India as soon as possible. India does not have any specific and dedicated data protection and privacy laws in India. On the contrary India is strongly committed to e-surveillance and other forms of privacy violation activities.

Human rights have to be actively protected in Indian cyberspace. Presently India is not paying any attention towards protecting civil liberties of Indians in cyberspace.

For instance, take the example of national intelligence grid (NATGRID) that was literally imposed upon Indian citizens. Thanks to the stiff resistance by experts, it has been temporarily stalled.

Similarly, the government of India is also imposing the aadhar project of India upon Indian citizens without any legislative backing and civil liberty safeguards. If aadhar project or UID project is allowed without civil liberty protection, it would be a civil liberty nightmare for Indians. The UIDAI must not proceed further and utilise hard earned public money till a statutory framework is in place.

The ultimate call is for the Parliament of India to take that is shying away from its responsibilities. On the contrary, it is making laws like information technology amendment act 2008 (sole cyber law of India) that empowers the Indian government to snoop and violate privacy of Indians without proper safeguards.

Aadhar is violating the civil liberties of Indians. For detail kindly see:
