What I wish India would do is this: force Chinese phone companies to ship stock Android and full source code. They sell hundreds of millions of phones in India and will have to find middle ground, and the outcome will be good for everyone.

I think this might be related to the Tibetan origin special forces soldier of Indian Army being killed in some recent altercation with PRC on their northern border.[1]<p>I do think India is going on a slippery slope now. With Tiktok, one can even make a case of it being used to manipulate sentiments and being used for propoganda, but that argument can hardly be made for a game like PubG. It also brings into question whether the ruling government can disrupt a business on its whim of the day.<p>Also, as far as I understand India is far more dependent economically on trade with China then China is on India. Do they really want to start a trade war with China?<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.theguardian.com&#x2F;world&#x2F;2020&#x2F;sep&#x2F;01&#x2F;indian-special-forces-soldier-killed-in-skirmish-with-chinese-troops" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.theguardian.com&#x2F;world&#x2F;2020&#x2F;sep&#x2F;01&#x2F;indian-special...</a>

&gt; India&#x27;s IT Ministry said it had &quot;credible information&quot; the latest batch were acting against India&#x27;s interests.<p>I&#x27;d venture to say many apps are against _everyone&#x27;s_ interest due to the caustic effects on society they have.

I appreciate the sentiment of having more domestic alternatives and competition but there&#x27;s an insignificant amount of work here. Indie developers and studios won&#x27;t start making apps and games for India unless they can sustain themselves. That is hard. I expect bigger companies such as jio to take lion&#x27;s share and have a default monopoly at this point.<p>&gt; India has emerged as the fastest growing app market in the world with 19 billion apps downloaded in 2019, up from 6.55 billion in 2016, according to data from analytics and market intelligence firm App Annie’s State of Mobile 2020 report published last week.<p>&gt; Indians have spent only $120 million on mobile apps whereas China dominates mobile spending with $48 billion, which is 40% of total revenue generated through mobile apps.<p>&gt; In-app subscriptions contributed to 96% of spend in top non-gaming apps.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;entrackr.com&#x2F;2020&#x2F;01&#x2F;india-is-fastest-growing-market-for-app-downloads-in-world&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;entrackr.com&#x2F;2020&#x2F;01&#x2F;india-is-fastest-growing-market...</a><p>Some background:<p>&gt; PM Narendra Modi on Sunday urged startups and entrepreneurs to develop innovative “toys and games, for India and of India” to meet domestic demand and increase its share in the global toy business, estimated at Rs 7 lakh crore. He also called upon people to support indigenously developed apps which could replace the ones currently in vogue and are controlled by foreign companies.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;timesofindia.indiatimes.com&#x2F;business&#x2F;india-business&#x2F;pm-modi-bats-for-local-toy-industry-urges-people-to-support-desi-apps&#x2F;articleshow&#x2F;77841819.cms" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;timesofindia.indiatimes.com&#x2F;business&#x2F;india-business&#x2F;...</a>

Like all other internet bans in India I doubt this one will have any teeth. Everyone has a &quot;Free&quot; VPN app that they use to bypass these restrictions.<p>Most people own Android phones where they can sideload apps downloaded from some third party APK website (of questionable trustworthiness)<p>iPhones have negligible penetration in India so are not even a part of the equation.

China bans stuff from all over the world, they are just starting to get taste of their own game. ;)

The Chinese government mandates that every app written in China must track and trace it&#x27;s users. This applies to apps running outside China but owned by Chinese companies.<p>1+ or Xiaomi or Huawei, they can&#x27;t really do anything about it.<p>They have to track users to be not banned.

I&#x27;m hearing that China might impose secondary sanctions on Reliance Jio in retaliation - no Chinese manufacturer can sell them phones or help buildout&#x2F;maintain their NW infrastructure; tech companies that operate in China would have to divest out of China entirely to do business with Jio, etc.

So far in the news (that I consume) I only see countries being agressive towards Chinese software companies.<p>I can&#x27;t imagine this goes on and continues escalating long before China reacts strongly.<p>What is China&#x27;s response going to look like? I feel uneasy that their response is going to light the fire even more.

Can anyone tell me how a country is able to block these apps and sites? What is the hardware required? What&#x27;s the process to do so. Any reference to existing articles would be amazing.

<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;internetfreedom.in" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;internetfreedom.in</a> is doing important work in challenging the Indian government&#x27;s surveillance and censorship apparatus. If you&#x27;re passionate about this, consider donating to them and&#x2F;or participating in the conversation. They&#x27;re active, from time to time, on r&#x2F;India as well.<p>(not affiliated with them in anyway or form, but I do work on anti-censorship tech).

It&#x27;s not exactly clear if the Indian Government has authority enough to do this ban, without presenting concrete evidence, under existing laws. There seems to be no semblance of a due process. As a democratic country India seems to trust its own citizens very less.<p>Banning or not sufficient case has not been made in the public, only a cryptic communique from the Govt is all.<p>What exactly was the threat from PUBG, which is not there in other games?

One thing I find amusing in this saga that&#x27;s been playing out since the last few months is TikTok&#x27;s reaction to being banned. When it was banned in India a couple of months ago, it didn&#x27;t file any lawsuits claiming that it&#x27;s not a threat to national security (though it has rejected such claims in the past). But when the U.S. announced a ban last month, TikTok sued the U.S. government &quot;on the grounds that it was enacted without evidence and without any due process.&quot; [1]<p>I wonder what action these companies will take with this ban or what leverage China may try to use to de-escalate the situation.<p>[1]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;techcrunch.com&#x2F;2020&#x2F;08&#x2F;24&#x2F;tiktok-sues-the-u-s-government-over-its-forthcoming-ban&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;techcrunch.com&#x2F;2020&#x2F;08&#x2F;24&#x2F;tiktok-sues-the-u-s-govern...</a>

Where is the Indian opposition on this? Are they fully behind Modi&#x27;s nationalism?<p>There is a raging pandemic. Massive recession. Potential war with China. Internet bans. Crackdown in Kashmir.<p>There has to be some questions?

<i>sigh</i>. Instead of this immense opportunity to see the rise of open source community where EVERYONE is welcome to contribute and make better software, the government is somehow pushing towards making homegrown ad ridden closed source clones of popular ad ridden closed source Chinese apps. Yucks
