The concept was discovered by Charles Grob (Fadiman) and later popularized by Dr. Rick Gruber. Microdosing is likened to a vitamin protocol due to its potential health benefits. It has shown promise in alleviating depression and may help other conditions such as anxiety and addiction. However, the long-term effects of microdosing are still being quantified. The book also touches on psychedelic-assisted therapy and the nonideological nature of psychedelics' benefits.

The court's verdict came after an appeal by their parents, who claimed caste-based discrimination as the reason for the deaths. The taskforce was established on March 24, 2025, following a January RTI query that revealed seven student suicides at IIT-Delhi between 2019 and 2024.

The groups, known as 'Com networks', are estimated to involve thousands of perpetrators and victims, with reports increasing six-fold in two years. Members of these groups are often motivated by status, power, control, misogyny, or a desire for extreme material. Teenagers are being radicalised online, similar to the character in Netflix drama 'Adolescence', and becoming desensitised to brutal violence. The agency believes their crimes are significantly under-reported, with offenders targeting vulnerable individuals, such as those with eating disorders or mental health issues.
