Govt blocks Ullu, ALTT and 23 other OTT apps for explicit content

The government has blocked "Ullu, ALTT (formerly ALTBalaji), and 23 other OTT (Over-The-Top) apps for explicit content," citing violations of Indian content regulations. This action reflects a stricter stance by authorities on digital content, particularly regarding obscenity and inappropriate material. The move aims to enforce moral guidelines and protect online viewers, especially minors, from objectionable content. This broad ban underscores the government's increasing regulatory control over the booming OTT streaming sector, compelling platforms to adhere to stricter content moderation policies.
