THREAD: The strange situation of India's Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (MIB) looking to regulate content on online streaming services like Netflix, Hotstar, Amazon Prime Video, Sony LIV etc. We've been tracking this since early 2018.

Some context from @nixxin:

1. In an unexpected move (it has been rumoured for over a year), amendments in the allocation of business rules have given MIB jurisdiction over regulation of online streaming services. medianama.com/2020/11/223-ib…

2. Why is this strange? Firstly, bec streaming services are not like cable TV. It's not broadcast. When you choose a show/video, you pull content. It is private viewing. What separates a streaming service like Hotstar from Porn? The content, of course, but nothing structurally
