Got a call from cyber safety department
1 week ago
I just wanted to download a 18+ app from chrome and the app just named as "YouTube kid's 18+" it is just the name no any child pornography in the app, but 2 days later I got a call cyber cell telling that "you're watching too much unwanted and dirty things on the web". But I swear I didn't watch any that type of video I just search for the app and I only watch porn 1 to 2 Times a week.
The main problem is, if they came at my house or send any written notice I am gonna suicide. Please tell how do I deal with this situation.
A.Dear Client,
Viewing pornography, whether involving children or adults, on digital devices and social media platforms is illegal and constitutes a punishable offense under the law. Section 67B of the Information Technology Act, 2000, introduced in 2008, specifically addresses the dissemination of sexually explicit content depicting children, making it a criminal act to publish, transmit, or facilitate the transmission of such material. Upon receiving a report of such a violation, the Cyber Crime Cell initiates an investigation, often requiring individuals to undergo interrogation to ascertain the source of the offensive content and verify the facts through intermediaries or service providers. If found to be in violation of the Act, individuals may face criminal charges; however, if no wrongdoing is uncovered, they will be acquitted of any charges.

A.Dear Client,
Viewing pornography either child pornography or adult in digital devices on social media platforms is illegal and a crime punishable under law. Sec.67B of the Information Technology Act, 2000 was added through an amendment in 2008 that criminalizes the publishing, transmitting, or causing the transmission of sexually explicit content depicting children. Once such a crime of violation of Sec.67B of I T Act, is reported to the Cyber Crime Cell, the matter is suo motto investigated by the authorities and you may be called on for interrogation to access the source of such offensive posts on social networks and to find out the veracity of the facts from the related intermediaries or service providers. On investigation, if they find you are in any way violating the provision of the Act, you can be booked for committing the crime, otherwise, you will be acquitted of the charges. If so happens, get in touch with an Advocate experienced in cyber law to face the consequences in the right way.

A.Dear Client
Could you please clarify that which Cyber Cell Team did call you on this? Is it the team from some organization where you are working or is it some government organization like the police/investigation team? I am a bot surprised as police or cyber crime team are not supposed to do this.
