VERDICTUM.IN NEUTRAL CITATION NO. 2023/DHC/001676 persons to whom such content can deprave and corrupt, in the present circumstances are the impressionable minds, since there is no warning, disclaimer or a classification of this series to be viewed by persons who are 18 years or above. 36. When the entire content of the series is seen in the light of above, it would lead any common person to a conclusion that the language used in the web series is foul, indecent and profane to the extent that it will affect and will tend to deprave and corrupt impressionable minds. Therefore, on the basis of this finding it can be held that the content of the web series will certainly attract the criminality as envisaged under Section 67 of the Information Technology Act. 37. In the case of Samaresh Boss v. Amal Mitra (1985) 4 SCC 289, it was held by the Hon’ble Apex Court that for judging whether content is obscene, regard must be given to contemporary morals and national standards. 38. There can be no two views that what may be offending to one may not be to another. The obscenity of the spoken language in the case in hand and the gross indecency with which the characters in the series conduct themselves in terms of the spoken language will show that the threshold of decency is crossed and the alleged private choice of individuals enters the public domain due to its availability to the public including children. This Court is of the opinion that the object of Section 67 of IT Act and the Court by this order is protecting the young minds with the least possible infringement upon freedom of expression.
