The government tightened the grip on social media even more


In India, the government and social media have long been at loggerheads over freedom to publish content and government control over it. For a few years now the Indian government has started imposing restrictions on social media and now last week India's IT Act has been amended once again. Accordingly, Facebook , Twitter and other social media shall not publish or host any false or misleading information regarding the working of the Government. Before publishing any such information, the social media companies have to check the authenticity of the information with the help of fake check unit set up by the government. It is natural that social media is protesting against this new provision. As India is a huge market for companies like Facebook , Twitter and Google, it is obvious that any kind of restrictions would be harsh on them. But in addition to this, organizations like Journalists and Editors Guild of India have also raised objections. According to all of them, this provision will threaten press freedom in India.

Did the extinction of the dinosaurs begin even before the asteroid collided?

Image
Mexico, December 6, 2021, Monday Scientists have long debated how the giant dinosaurs that roamed the earth millions of years ago became extinct. The most well-known theory for the extinction of dinosaurs is that asteroids or meteorites collide with Earth. The Chicksulab meteorite collided around the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico 25 million years ago, triggering the cataclysmic palaeogen extinction. According to another theory, dinosaurs could not survive the beginning of the ice age due to climate change. According to recent claims, the extinction of dinosaurs began 10 million years before the asteroid collided with Earth. According to a study published in the journal Nature, figures and findings from 1,200 dinosaur fossils found around the world were looked at. Based on this, researchers have developed a model. In the North Cretaceous, carnivorous and herbivorous dinosaur species were found roaming. Fabian Kodamine, a researcher at the Matpillars Institute of Revolutionary Sciences...
