Today, justice Bobde observed that the condition failed to seem to be too "onerous".

"We don't think it's too onerous if somebody's participation on social media creates mischief. Why can't the Court say you do not use the instrument by which you caused mischief?"


The Court further stated that they might consider the question of law on whether an endeavor court, while granting bail, could restrict an individual from using social media, when the crime committed has nothing to try to to with social media access.
