The government of India has threatened to jail employees of Facebook, WhatsApp, and Twitter as it seeks to end political protests and take control over American owned tech platforms.

Twitter “will continue to advocate for the fundamental principles of the Open Internet,” a company spokesman said, adding: “Threats to these principles are on the rise around the world, which is of deep concern.”
Other nations have responded that the U.S. big tech companies are not advocating an open internet. Instead these social platforms have morphed into media and publishing companies.
