When the internet revolution began to sweep the world in the late 1990s, the people had no inkling of its scope and impact on the society. It has brought a drastic change to the mode of communication among the people. The virtual world has become source of catalysis to move, shape and transform the real or physical world. Now no sector is detached from internet that is now an essential part of most of human activity and professions. But, as a saying goes: ‘every coin has two sides’, the internet-driven conduct, interaction and business have also pros and cons. No doubt, the internet has enabled the people to accomplish works fast and meticulously but it has also been abused to harm the innocent lot. Anyone with a personal computer can create fake account to cheat people or share false news and information or spread rumours and hate speech through social networking sites to mislead the community.
