Some Nations Are Indulging In Cybercrime: Kapil Sibal
Sibal said it is important to evolve rules so that internet freedom does not deteriorate into lawlessness.
"So in that situation how do we evolve rules to deal with those issues? If we don't do that we will have lawlessness. Freedom and lawlessness are two sides of the same coin. If freedom is not exercised with a sense of responsibility, then it results in lawlessness.
"So, freedom becomes its own enemy in the absence of accountability. It is a very dangerous proposition and we can't let that happen," he added.
Last month at a global event on internet in Baku (Azerbaijan), Sibal had laid stress on greater cooperation and exchange of information among nations to enhance cybersecurity and to address issues related to the management of the internet.
"No nation can fight cybercrime or secure its cyberspace in isolation. Increased and focused cooperation among key players, governments, industry and international bodies, is essential to create a secure cyberspace," he had said.
