Meta says India’s new 3-hour content takedown rule is unworkable, citing verification delays and compliance risks.
Meta warns India’s new three-hour deadline for removing harmful content is operationally unfeasible, citing the time needed to verify government or user reports.
The rule, part of updated IT Rules effective February 20, 2026, cuts takedown windows significantly—from 36 to three hours for unlawful content and two hours for non-consensual sexual imagery.
Rob Sherman, Meta’s policy VP, said rapid action challenges accuracy and compliance, especially amid India’s tight 12- to 18-month deadline for its DPDP Act.
He highlighted risks to global platforms like WhatsApp due to data localization demands and urged nuanced regulation over broad bans, supporting age-based protections and industry collaboration.
