PETALING JAYA: Industry experts are calling for social media platforms to be regulated to make them more accountable for fraudulent content, arguing that despite its promises, social media has turned into a hotbed of false advertisements and fake news.
Universiti Sains Malaysia cybersecurity expert Assoc Prof Dr Selvakumar Manickam said amendments should be made to the Communications and Multimedia Act (CMA) to regulate platform providers to force them to take a more dedicated stance on taking down non-compliant content from their platforms.
