@nixxin has a nice summary of the draconian #telecombill tabled in the parliament today: https://nitter.in.projectsegfau.lt/nixxin/status/1736712985203089898

> Basically,all Internet services (messaging, email, cloud, video) will be telecom services regulated by DoT, requiring govt authorisation+verifiable biometric authentication of users & available for interception, & can be taken over by the govt if there is a national security issue

This impacts all Internet startups in India.
