Minister I & B in commentary on content creation, especially comedy and jokes, said, “As technology users, whether we are content creators or we are technology, we should understand what our responsibility is and we should try to be …. I would say as citizens or users, we should try and find out what the whole boundary should be.
“If you are in your own living room with 4-5 persons, these jokes would be very different from a platform where you basically send all over the world what you want to say. Then we have to understand that we live in a social context. I would say we should understand it as social responsibility,” he added.
