In an era where celebrity culture is driven largely by personal branding and social media presence, personality rights are crucial to protect an individual’s identity and reputation. The Delhi High Court recently passed a John Doe order against 10 Youtube Channels to protect the personality rights of the Indian actor and film producer Manchu Vishnu.
The actor filed a suit against the Youtube channels accusing them of infringing his personality rights by disseminating defamatory content, morphing his images and exploiting his name to host numerous pornographic websites. The Court not only restrained the youtube channels from publishing defamatory content, but also restricted them from further exploitation of the actor’s personality rights across all platforms including emerging technologies such as Metaverse and AI. The Court notified the Ministry of Telecommunications and Information Technology to take action and suspend the URLS associated with the infringing videos.
