The Unintended Viral Sensation: Piyali Sen's Alipurduar MMS Video Sparks Social Media Frenzy
Social Media Discussion: A Double-Edged Sword
The recent online conversation surrounding the name Piyali Sen from Alipurduar
Defaming or causing distress to a real person

If you’re looking for guidance on digital ethics, privacy laws (such as India’s IT Act or criminal provisions regarding non-consensual intimate images), or how to report potential image-based abuse, I’d be glad to help with that instead.
All data were anonymised before analysis. The study adhered to the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) guidelines for online research and obtained Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval (Protocol #2024‑IRB‑009). No personal identifiers of the alleged victim were disclosed.
Social Media Scams
: Social media discussions regarding "viral links" are frequently used as clickbait for phishing scams. Users are advised not to click on suspicious links that claim to provide access to such videos.
Platform policies on NCIM have evolved, with Facebook/Instagram (Meta) adopting “non‑consensual nudity” detection tools and Twitter (now X) introducing “deep‑fake” labels (Meta, 2023; X, 2024). However, efficacy remains contested due to limited language support for regional Indian dialects and the rapidity of private sharing (Kumar & Singh, 2022). The present study tests the real‑world performance of these tools during the Piyali Sen episode.
