Almost a compulsion in today’s times, #tech companies have had to reckon with questions of #human rights. Tech companies are accountable to users, governments and society for their compliance with human rights principles. Thus, human rights pose to be a #business risk for tech companies. To mitigate such risks, it is crucial for tech companies to embed #respect for human rights in #company policies. While respecting human rights is a universal obligation, UN has framed the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (#UNGPs) and #UN Global Compact that specifically ask businesses to respect human rights. Such endeavours must be guided by international human rights principles enshrined in Universal Declaration of Human Rights (#UDHR) and International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (#ICCPR). Launching our series on tech businesses and human rights, this article looks at how human rights centric #business ethics can foster #innovation and boost #sustainable value creations for tech companies.

Satellite broadband is being viewed as a revolutionary technology to improve #broadband access and quality globally, especially for remote areas / areas without terrestrial broadband access. Major #satellite operators such as SpaceX’s Starlink and Hughes are looking at India as the next big market for this service. Even Bharti Airtel’s OneWeb is looking to enter this market. The technology could help improve broadband access and speeds in India exponentially, especially for rural and remote areas in #India. But before they can set up shop in India, these operators will have to grapple with many #5G, #spectrum and licensing issues. This post takes a look at how India’s #telecom regulations could make it difficult for satellite broadband operators to enter the Indian market. These regulations need to be revamped to keep pace with changes in #satcom technologies- www.ikigailaw.com/satellite-broadband-the-world-is-gearing-up-for-india-but-are-we-ready/

#InternetExchanges are an oft ignored piece of India’s #internet #infrastructure. While the National Internet Exchange of India (#NIXI) was set up as India’s first internet exchange in 2003, there have been many more set up in India since then. In this post, we take a look at the #regulatory framework governing Internet Exchanges in India and discuss why the lack of clarity relating to the sector may affect the mission of a #digital #India. We also discuss at recent case in the Delhi High Court Extreme Infocom v, Union of India involving a regulatory dispute between a leading internet exchange and the Department of Telecommunications (#DoT) and examine why the DoT’s arguments in this case may not be the best #policy to facilitate the growth of Internet Exchanges in India.
