Twitter Account of Ravi Shankar Prasad Locked Due to DMCA Complaint by Sony for Using AR Rahman’s Popular Song ‘Maa Tujhe Salaam’: Reports

New Delhi, June 26: Twitter on Friday locked IT minister Ravi Shankar Prasad’s account for almost an hour stating that he violated the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DCMA) by Sony Music Entertainment. Miffed by Twitter’s actions, the Minister took a dig at the microblogging site saying that it violated new IT rules that require intermediary or a host of user content to give prior notice before locking access.

However, the exact reason for Twitter denying access to the Union minister is a tweet dating back to 2017 which is related to music director AR Rahman’s famous song ‘Maa Tujhe Salaam’. The popular song by the iconic music director was found in violation of Twitter’s copyright policy, prompting Twitter to briefly lock Prasad’s account. Twitter Blocks Ravi Shankar Prasad’s Account Over Alleged Violation of Digital Millennium Copyright Act, IT Minister Terms it ‘Gross Violation of IT Guidelines’.

According to the Lumen database, the DMCA notice, related to the song ‘Maa Tujhe Salaam’, was sent by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) on behalf of Sony Music Entertainment back on May 24. Reports inform that the notice was received by Twitter on June 25, following which the social media platform took action and locked Prasad’s Twitter account.

In the tweet by Prasad that dates back to 2017, the content consisted of a tribute video to the Indian Army, where the AR Rahman’s song ‘Ma Tujhe Salaam’ was used in the background. It was posted on the anniversary of the 1971 war victory, said people familiar with the development.

Fortnite maker Epic Games said on Tuesday that it had filed a complaint with the UK’s competition regulator in support of an investigation into Apple Inc’s anti-competitive behavior.

The UK Competition and Markets Authority said earlier this month it had made a complaint to Apple that the iPhone developers’ terms and conditions were inappropriate for the app creators.

Apple’s App Store-related payment policies have long had complaints from app developers, as they are required to use its payment system, which charges commissions of between 15% and 30%.

Epic and Apple have served in numerous lawsuits around the world following a dispute over the App Payment Commission last year.

After the game creator tried to avoid the app’s 30% charge on the App Store, Epic’s Fortnite launched into the app-store payment system from the App Store and banned the App Store.

Tim Sweeney, founder and chief executive of Epic Games, an outspoken critic of Apple’s policies, said “its practice artificially generates agility for consumers, and innovation among developers”.

“It’s not surprising that Epic is advancing its agenda in front of the UK Competition and Markets Authority, as we’ve seen them using the same Playbook worldwide,” said an Apple spokesperson.

The gaming company is facing lawsuits against Apple in Australia and the United States, and has filed an antitrust complaint in the European Union.

Apple stated that Epic wants to operate under a different set of rules that apply to all other developers … we think that’s wrong.

France’s major startup lobby said in a statement that France Digitel will file a complaint against iPhone maker Apple with data privacy watchdog CNIL on Tuesday.

In a seven-page complaint seen by Reuters, the lobby, which represents the bulk of France’s digital entrepreneurs and venture capitalists, alleges that Apple’s latest operating software, iOS 14, does not comply with the EU’s privacy requirements .

On the one hand, argues France Digitel, iPhone owners are asked whether they are willing to allow mobile apps to be installed to define campaign ads and to collect the key identifier used to send targeted ads. Huh.

On the other hand, Apple’s default settings allow the US firm to do its own targeted advertising campaign without explicitly asking iPhone users for their prior consent, France Digitel says.
