"The whole population of Internet Users soon to be behind bars under new IT Act"

Reacting to the defamatory content being published on the internet, the Government has come up with an act that hold clauses which would allegedly put the whole Internet community behind bars. 

Mr. Sibbal explained the clauses with a skirmish smile while his mole shone like a lode star in the press. " See, I am going to narrate one by one how every single user can be held responsible for his internet conduct."

The first thing was obviously what would be considered defamatory. Sibbal says that since it is a social forum, so every person who has more than say 200 friends or followers, would be (and is self professedly) a public figure. An application of clause 1 of the IT law would mean even if a friend has written F-word or anything defamatory, be it in the form of banter, he/ she would be chargeable under the law.

Any video or graphical image if shared with anybody would make them equally liable under 'Defamatory chain clause' of the law. This would potentially put all the millions who shared 'Kolaveri Video' since a sassy girl from IIPM has filed an FIR that the song personally offends her. All the IP addresses of those who shared the video would be soon behind the bars or may have to serve a sentence in IIPM itself.

One branch of CBI is also tracing those net buddies who had once defamed God Sachin as he was criticised when he was having a poor run in form. Mr. Khatri, a CBI official investing the case, shockingly reveled that Sachin himself may be incarcerated since he had written somewhere this line: "I am in a bad form and would think of quitting if it continues like this."

The situation is more worse with 'Feduciary Liability clause' which says that if the computer is traced to a particular house but no one person agrees to it, then Mother Father Sister Brother Grandfather Grandmother would be picked up and put under special 'Family cells' in Tihar.

Sibbal has issued a special warning to Faking News, notifying the clause, that since there is a bulky community of followers, if any post is found defamatory then all of them would he held for offence on the ground of 'Abetting in crime'. An equal guilt would mark them as offenders under the law. Followers were soon found to remove all the comments and likes on Sibbal's last few posts. 

The whole internet community is lulled. Nobody is writing or complaining as it would amount to offence under some clause. We have risked our head while writing this post but if we are put behind the bars, we urge you to keep your hands off any virtual violence online.
