My bank account was frozen by a cyber cell. What can I do?
A lawyer can find out which police station ordered the freeze and apply for de-freezing or limited operation, before the magistrate or the High Court if needed.
Can I get fake profiles or defamatory posts removed?
Yes. Platforms must act on grievances under the IT Rules. If they do not, courts can order takedowns.
