A US court has ruled that Facebook is resistant from claim that it distinguishes against the ‘Sikhs for Justice’, a US-based human rights group, by jamming admittance to its Facebook page in India.
The Sikh group’s claims of spiritual inequity are prohibited under the Communications Decency Act, US District Judge Lucy Koh in San Jose ruled last week, according to SFJ.
The Act defend providers of ‘interactive computer services’ by not including courts from treating service providers like Facebook as the publishers or speakers of speech created by others.
In its lawsuit, SFJ claimed that at the command of the Indian government, Facebook blocked its page because of its open campaign against government alleged bullying of Sikhs and advocating for Sikh referendum in the Indian state of Punjab.
