"With civilization progressing, there comes the need to make a law"

“As the civilization progresses, there arises the need to change the law. Every new thing that comes in the civilization creates a new challenge for the existing civilization. A simple change made in the law, for instance making seat belts mandatory while driving, it is the duty of the government to make the people aware of it through multiple exposure to advertisements or even through educational institutions also. So laws of the country can be imbibed in a citizen through academics also. No law is complex; they can be made simple by breaking them into small parts and then passing on the same to citizens.People like you and me who have larger access to people should also take the responsibility of percolating this information about laws to them. Another major topic in the country today is data sovereignty. Now there is a difference between data sovereignty and censorship. The data which is circulating within the country should not go out through any social media or any e-marketplaces. Laws should be enforced that makes it abiding on the part of companies to bring their datacenters inside the country where they stack large amounts of data of the country. This will also make it easier to investigate whenever there is any breach of data.”
