    Question

    Which of the following does not come under cyber-crime under IT Act 2000?

    A.

    Distributing child pornography over internet

    B.

    Misusing personal information over internet

    C.

    Using fake email messages to get personal information

    D.

    Stealing monitor from a store

    Correct option is D

    The IT Act 2000 deals with crime involving computers, digital data, online communication, and internet misuse. Stealing a monitor physically from a store is a physical theft, not a cyber-crime. Therefore, it is handled under IPC, not the IT Act.
    Important Key Points:
    1. Cyber-crime involves computers and internet-based offenses.
    2. IT Act 2000 covers data theft, privacy breach, online fraud, etc.
    3. Phishing and email scams fall under cyber-crime.
    4. Physical theft is handled under general criminal law, not IT law.
    Knowledge Booster:
    1. Distributing child pornography online is a punishable cyber offense.
    2. Personal data misuse over the internet is covered by the IT Act.
    3. Fake email scams are handled under cyber fraud provisions.
