SC bars online platforms from hosting subscription-based sexual content

India’s Supreme Court has ordered that digital platforms may not host subscription‑based sexual content. The ruling emphasizes that prohibiting such material does not stop minors from accessing the internet; instead, they may migrate to unregulated sites that could be even less secure. The judgment aims to tighten safeguards while acknowledging the challenges of online content control.
