ABSTRACT

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technological advancements, the attribution of liability for actions conducted by third parties utilizing technology is a critical and complex issue. This paper delves into the concept of intermediaries and investigates how these entities are held accountable or absolved of liability in both European and Indian legal frameworks.

The study explores the legal intricacies surrounding intermediaries, examining the European and Indian perspectives on their liability. Special attention is given to understanding the nuances of intermediary liability and the factors that determine their culpability in facilitating or enabling unlawful actions.

Furthermore, the paper scrutinizes the judicial remedies available in both jurisdictions to address liabilities associated with intermediaries. A comparative analysis is conducted to assess the efficacy of these judicial remedies, shedding light on the strengths and weaknesses of each system.

In addition to the existing legal landscape, the paper discusses potential avenues for improvement within the Indian judiciary concerning intermediary liability. It examines areas where the Indian legal system can adapt and enhance its mechanisms to address technological challenges more effectively.

This comprehensive exploration aims to contribute valuable insights into the evolving discourse on technology-related liability, offering a comparative perspective on the approaches adopted by Europe and India. The findings of this study may serve as a foundation for discussions on refining legal frameworks and fostering international cooperation to address the dynamic challenges posed by technological advancements.
