SRINAGAR: Cyber Police Kashmir on Sunday issued an advisory urging social media users in the region to exercise responsibility aimed at discouraging the spread of rumours, fake news, hate speech, and inappropriate content.
“All the social media users are advised to use social media platforms responsibly and refrain from sharing rumours, fake news, hate speech or obscene, violent and defamatory content,” reads an advisory issued by Cyber Police.
“Moreover, social media users are cautioned not to indulge in propagation of terrorist and secessionist ideology and false narrative.”
“Circulation of any incriminatory content received from other users without verifying the facts may be avoided and on noticing/receiving any such information, instead of sharing with others, immediately inform Cyber Police Kashmir. Stay informed, be responsible,” the advisory further added.
