Noida Police are reported to have mandated the use of software for management of cyber cafes. The recommended software is iCafe Manager supplied free of cost and supported by advertisement.
Though the press report suggests that the installation of software will enable compliance of ITA 2008 by Cyber Cafes, it is not clear how this is accomplished. What is perhaps achieved is only the logging in of the user’s ID in replacement of the manual visitor’s register since all users would be enrolled first as members.
The move is however a step in the right direction as it enables collection of evidence in case of misuse of the cyber cafe facilities.
