Jacob and Kevin from THE BOYZ started a live stream on one of their social media platforms to connect with fans. They shared during the live that they had raised concerns about the outfit with their management agency as well as stylist. At the time, however, their concerns over the matter were dismissed, as the stylist labelled the headpiece to be a "beanie with legs," sending a wave of shock through fans, who had continuously been emailing the company about the cultural appropriation.

Many called the company out for not being careful and for ignoring warnings from the idols themselves. Many even pointed out the fact that there had been no comments from the company, and instead the English-speaking members had to issue a statement amid continuous backlash. One fan commented, "This entire situation is so ridiculous and could've been avoided so easily, and it also sucks knowing Kevin and Jacob felt the need to address it because they know 100 won't," while another shared that, "Why would you not listen to your artist's feedback? Especially over something being perceived as a durag. Poor decision by both the stylists and the management team."

Govt blocks 25 OTT platforms for streaming obscene, vulgar content
ANI The government has ordered the blocking of 25 Over the Top (OTT) platforms for airing obscene content, the information and broadcasting (I&B) ministry said on Friday. The platforms including Ullu, Gulab, Hulchul, MoodX, and Mojflix, among others, have 'obscene, vulgar and in some cases pornographic content', the ministry said in a statement. The action to disable 26 websites and 14 apps have been taken in consultation with the ministries of home affairs, electronics and IT, and women and child development, and will be enforced through the Information Technology Act, 2000, and the IT Rules, 2021. The government finally cracked the whip on the 25 platforms after the I&B ministry had warned all of them back in September last year. Meanwhile, five platforms blocked earlier in March 2024, started publishing obscene content on new website domains, the ministry said. "There was hardly any storyline, theme or message in a social context. A large portion of the content was obscene and vulgar," the statement read. Content on these platforms have fallen foul of multiple sections of IT Act, and the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act, 1986. "While these sections criminalise the publication and uploading of obscene content, the power to ban or order takedown of offending material online is governed by Section 69A of the IT Act read with Information Technology (Procedure and Safeguards for Blocking for Access of Information by Public) Rules, 2009," Vikram Jeet Singh, partner at law firm BTG Advaya, said. Singh pointed out this was important, since the government has in the past relied upon Section 79 of the IT Act while ordering content takedowns. In May, the web series 'House Arrest' had been taken down by Ullu after intervention by the I&B inmistry. Ullu had been censured earlier by the Digital Publisher Content Grievances Council, when over 100 web-series were asked to be removed. But after removing them, the OTT had re-uploaded the unedited versions, the ministry said. Elevate your knowledge and leadership skills at a cost cheaper than your daily tea.
