Bombay High Court orders Meta, X and Google to remove posts on GadkariThe Bombay High Court granted interim relief to Union minister Nitin Gadkari by directing Meta, X and Google to remove defamatory and AI-generated deepfake posts targeting him. The bench directed Meta, X Corp and Google LLC to ensure forthwith that the posts are taken down. Justice Doctor also questioned the online platforms on whether they had any mechanism to take down such posts without the affected person having to approach the court. Gadkari last week filed a suit against Meta, X Corp, Google LLC and unknown persons over “defamatory” deepfakes and AI-generated posts uploaded against him regarding the ethanol policy. The senior BJP leader claimed that several fake, AI-generated and defamatory posts were available online regarding the ethanol-blended fuel issue.
