Hiren: ' At this rate, maybe someday a law shall be passed that everybody should compulsorily move around with a web camera or something like that which should remain on all the time . This sort of thing can be countered only if everyone starts behaving like Tarun Tejpal and if not in the age of information revolution and mass communication, then when?'
@Hiren all I can say is What an idea sirjee...it could be a panacea to the ubiquitous legal question 'saboot hai kya??'(do you have any proof??) But the reason that we can't make anything foolproof is that we can never underestimate the ingenuity of fools or the law-breakers in this case...if we come up with webcams in no time will they start using that to their own benefit (in the latest bombing also we can see terrorists using technology more 'effectively' & 'efficiently' )...what with morphing & tempering of digital records (incidentally are digital records such as CDs admissible in courts currently???? as far as I know they are not)....so using webcams is scary....not only because of privacy concerns but also potential misuse.
Though swetha's question looks frivolous but it has made me curious legally speaking i.e......are there any specific laws & sections which punish verbal abuse????? Instigating others to crime is indeed punishable but does mere verbal abuse constitute enough instigation?? Cos personally I'm never affected by someone abusing me verbally...instead of hitting them I'd only laugh at them in their face...but still its a valid question of law.Private Reply to Ritu (new win) |
