SC stays Madras HC directive to YouTuber Jerald to close down his channel

The Supreme Court on Friday stayed the Madras High Court directive to YouTuber Felix Jerald to close down his channel "RedPix 24x7" as one of the bail conditions. Jerald had been arrested for hosting an "objectionable" interview of another YouTuber Savukku Shankar on his YouTube channel. In the interview, Shankar made certain comments against Madras High Court judges and women police officers of the state. The high court, which granted bail to both YouTubers, had asked Jerald to close down his channel as one of the conditions. A bench comprising Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justices J B Pardiwala and Manoj Misra issued a notice to the state government and stayed the particular direction on closure of the channel. It, however, asked him to comply with other bail conditions. "You are making scurrilous allegations against the judiciary and all women IPS officers. Why do you host such interviews?" the CJI asked. Senior advocate Gopal Sankaranarayanan, appearing for the YouTuber,

YouTube toughens policy on gun videos in attempt to safeguard youth

YouTube is changing its policies about firearm videos in an effort to keep potentially dangerous content from reaching underage users. The video sharing platform owned by Google said Wednesday it will prohibit any videos demonstrating how to remove firearm safety devices. In addition, videos showing homemade guns, automatic weapons and certain firearm accessories like silencers will be restricted to users 18 and older. The changes take effect June 18 and come after gun safety advocates have repeatedly called on the platform to do more to ensure gun videos aren't making their way to the site's youngest users, potentially traumatising children or sending them down dark paths of extremism and violence. Katie Paul, director of the Tech Transparency Project, said the change was welcome news and a step in the right direction. But she questioned why the platform took so long to issue a new policy, and said her group will look to see how effectively YouTube enforces its new rule. Firearms
