Social media companies to shut fake a/cs within 24 hours of complaint

社交媒体公司需在收到投诉24小时内关闭假冒账户

NEW DELHI: In a major decision that is likely to end the menace of impersonation on social media in India, the government has mandated that top companies such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube have to remove accounts with fake profile pictures of known personalities and businesses, and even the general subscriber, within 24 hours of being notified of the same by the user or someone on his/her behalf.

新德里：印度政府要求Twitter、Facebook、Instagram和YouTube等公司阿在收到用户或其代表的投诉后24小时内，删除使用知名人物和企业甚至普通用户的假头像的账户，这一重大决定或能结束印度社交媒体上的假冒现象。

The government has said this mandate comes in as part of the new IT rules and thus social media giants will need to act immediately after receiving a complaint to this effect.

政府表示，这一规定是新IT规定的一部分，因此社交媒体巨头在收到相关投诉后需要立即采取行动。

"For example, if a known film actor, or a cricketer, or a politician, or any other user, objects to another person using his or her image/picture to gain followers or to make their messaging more visible, or to carry out any illegal act, then they are within their right to ask the companies to take down the account. Provisions to this effect have been included in the new IT Rules for social media companies, and they have to take remedial action within a day after being notified by a user," official sources told TOI.

官方消息人士对印度时报表示：“例如，如果一个知名电影演员，或板球运动员，或政客，或任何其他用户，反对其他人使用他或她的照片来获得关注，或使他们的消息更显眼，或进行任何非法活动，他们有权要求这些公司删除该账户。针对社交媒体公司的新IT规定已经包含了这方面的规定，它们必须在接到用户通知后的一天内采取补救措施。”

Impersonators are a major sore point for popular personalities, influencers, activists and even corporates/businesses as they mimic a legitimate account for various reasons. These may range from pure-play parody accounts, to those created for doing mischief or a crime, or to carry out a financial fraud. Some such accounts are also created by fans of popular personalities, and some are also run through bots. Apart from using an image of a popular personality as their profile picture, some fake account holders may also add their own image to a celebrity/politician’s picture by morphing the original content in order to claim proxmity, and get favours.

对于受欢迎的人物、有影响力的人、活动人士，甚至公司/企业来说，这些假冒账户的人让他们非常头疼，他们出于各种原因假冒合法账户。这些账户可能是纯粹的模仿，也可能是为了恶作剧、犯罪或进行金融欺诈而创建的。有些此类账户也是由流行人物的粉丝创建的，有些也是通过机器人运行的。除了使用流行人物的头像，一些假冒账户持有人还可能通过剪辑原始内容将自己的头像和名人或政客的头像P在一起，以彰显自己与他们关系密切，并获得好处。
