Justice Devan Ramachandran also suggested that a case should be filed once morest such reviews that come out of unknown centers with malicious intent under the sections of the IT Act.

The court pointed out that reviews from unknown sources provide opportunities for blackmail and extortion. The problem is writing negative reviews for money, not negative reviews. The court also opined that there should be a process for self-disclosure including name of the reviewer.

The state police chief presented the protocol to prevent malicious, negative reviews and review bombing. The court is considering petitions filed by Mubeen Rauf, the director of ‘Aromal’s first love’, seeking to control negative reviews on release days and negative reports by online vloggers focusing on theatres.

According to the Cyber ​​Act, the police can intervene if the reviews on social media contain defamatory remarks. However, the comments in the reviews come from fake addresses. Therefore, the police made it clear that there is a limit to taking action once morest such acts. The police also stated that if a complaint is received personally, there is a situation to file a case under the Cyber ​​Act.

The court directed the central government to submit a report following studying the protos. Then the petition was once more adjourned for consideration following two weeks.
