No WAY TO FIGHT THIS !


How  Do  You  Control  Wind  ?

-----------------------


So far , mankind has not found any method to stop wind from blowing where it likes
It is getting the same for “ Content “ ( - often in the form of NEWS – real or fake )

Times of India ( 11 April ) carries following news :





HIGHLIGHTS :


Twitter’s policy on automated accounts, last updated in November, allows bots to operate but with limitations.

The policy allows for bots to “
automatically broadcast helpful information” or “run creative campaigns that autoreply to users.”



EXAMPLES OF AUTOMATED ACCOUNTS

  #   Netflix bot which tweets when new shows are added to the online streaming service, and another which posts random images from the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

#   CNN operates a “breaking news” bot and the New York Times has one that provides live analysis of NFL games

#   New York Times has one that provides live analysis of NFL games


Let no one have doubts that there must be thousands of similar ( but , less well-known ) AUTOMATED BOTS , broadcasting all kinds of news ( fake or real ) , over the internet


Our IB Ministry had recently set up a committee to formulate a policy for digital broadcasting and news portals




Each passing day confirms what I said in my earlier blog :


Parallel to the ”  Theory of  Thermodynamics “ , I would like to propound the
 following , as far as the  “ Theory of Information “  is concerned :

     
     “  Like Entropy , content keeps growing with each and every human
     interaction , either with other humans or with his environment , and content
     can no longer remain hidden , nor can it be destroyed  “


On same day ( 11 April ) , Economic Times carried following news :





This report reads :

“ Trai likely to define what is personal data and who owns it “



I urge TRAI to find time to read :
