One of the finest examples of how even the most advanced technology may pose risks to human beings is provided by the many social media platforms. In 2018, almost twenty individuals lost their lives as a direct result of false information that was disseminated on social media. The rumor in question was essentially connected to the bogus news of a kid being taken. Through the use of digital forms of communication such as edited pictures, videos, memes, unverified ads, and social media platforms (such as WhatsApp, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram), rumors are spread very quickly with the click of a button, which has become a very big challenge for the government and administration to monitor. As a result, the Supreme Court had to step in and take action to combat the spread of fake news.
