Wikipedia vs Delhi HC Judge's Actions
Wikipedia explained that the delay had been caused as the platform didn’t have any physical presence in India.
- Wikipedia here, explaining that they have a limited ability and asking HC to be reasonable.
"We will close your business transactions here"
- Judge, realising they are showing weakness, increasing threat level.
Current actions vs Past actions
- Refer "Relevant Article" in the post.
- Low impact companies asked Supreme Court and were shot down
- Company with a high standing and a potential political backing, asks the High Court and gets full attention
- On top of that, Delhi HC Judge decides to move to "Contempt of Court", making it much harder for Wikipedia, in case they move Supreme Court (SC) in the future, for a re-trial
- I feel like this would have gone differently had ANI gone to SC from the beginning.
Writing this part separately in a comment, because I understand this includes my bias.
Also, if I don't interact with any comments later, please excuse me. GOI might have stopped my internet, just for posting this, because they can.
