Resurrection of identity in Face A produser’s attempt to navigate through the space of erotic sociality

Abstract

Social Networking sites and the User Generate Content (UGC) facility within, are transforming the media ecosystem. While Web 2.0 is being claimed as a democratic media, it is also used to transmit or display defective, improper, illegal contents by the users that remain concealed to its typical or a majority of users. In India, many bans and censorships made on various sites were the result of defamation, endangering of public orders or national security, hacking, etc., The researcher seeks to unveil the tricks of a produser whose account in Facebook is blocked time and again, rather he is deterritorialized, due to his publication of porn content in the SNS. Yet, he rises again without altering the profile in much the same identity and sucks the followers up to him (reterritorialised). The researcher also unearths the self identity veiling techniques in the cyberspace in order to avoid being implicated legally for defamation
