- 11. CONCLUSION ▰ Looking at this scenario, the necessity for an unbiased regulatory body may be a must. the web Content Streaming can't be controlled by a self-regulatory body. The body shall distinguish responsible content for regulation. The OTT platforms and therefore the Government shall work together on this and end this issue once and for all. ▰ The public today is trying to find content that brings out the reality of the society, deals with socio-political issues, provides us regional varieties and utmost importantly doesn't hurt the emotions of one class of individuals . Hence, these regulatory gaps and grey areas are alarming.
