The X account of David Peterson (@davidgpeterson), General Manager at @ProtonVPN, has been suspended in India. This came after he posted about a 150% surge in hourly registrations for Proton VPN from India, following @telegram's temporary ban in the country. Proton VPN is a virtual private network (VPN) service that allows users to change their apparent online location. By using a VPN, people in India could route their internet traffic through servers outside the country and access blocked platforms such as Telegram. The suspension of his account adds to the growing trend of content takedowns and account suspensions ordered without transparency. Most of these orders are being issued under Section 69A of the IT Act, which allows the government to issue blocking orders on broad grounds such as national security or public order. Read with Rule 16 of the Information Technology (Procedure and Safeguards for Blocking Access of Information by Public) Rules, 2009, this provision requires confidentiality regarding all requests and complaints received as well as actions taken. As a result, the person facing information blocking may never be heard or provided a reasoned order on why their content is blocked online. Apart from causing a chilling effect on free speech, this violates basic tenets of natural justice. SFLC.in has filed a PIL in the Hon’ble Supreme Court challenging the constitutionality of Rule 16. We have urged the Court to quash or set aside Rule 16. Read more about the PIL here: sflc.in/sflc-in-challe… SFLC.in is monitoring and documenting such instances of free speech violations through its Free Speech Tracker.

the edit_hide flag is returned by telegram. instead of banning and blocking telegram, the authorities could have asked telegram to: NOT SEND THE EDIT HIDE FLAG???? for the neet exams?? isn't that the safer approach? especially when this is a design decision. let me explain

@sbalaji1 tbf they're not doing a very good job at explaining why the ban is stupid. the ban isnt for preventing leaks, its for (somehow) preventing misinfo. they need to refute his bullshit by talking about how that's an inappropriate response to misinfo

@joeyarsitobulus @kodejeet @durov @sidhant_sarthak no it doesn't. it applies to all regardless of whether you're good at tech or not. if i wanted to learn ocaml i might look up ocaml for dummies

Wow. Reliance Communications has engaged in BGP hijacking of Telegram's IP prefixes and is leaking it globally via FLAG Telecom (AS15412) and affecting traffic far beyond India. (Is this an accident?) It is still live: cc: @anurag_bhatia @Squeal @kingslyj @AroonDeep @Aditi_muses

you don't even need a vpn to get around the telegram ban. telegram was literally built with censorship resistance in mind and has spent years operating in countries with far more aggressive internet controls than india. history has repeatedly shown that blocking a communication platform is far easier to announce than it is to enforce.

Indian telecom Reliance is sabotaging access to Telegram for millions of users OUTSIDE India (including the UAE) via a rogue method called BGP hijacking. The sabotage seems intentional, as Reliance has ignored multiple reports. This may be part of a competitive war, as

@krishashok my guess was - whatever string similarity metric they use must have matched it to another string, which had a checkout history (some user searched that string and added something to the cart from the results) or maybe the same string had some checkout history

The government of India is blocking my posts on Instagram that criticizes Homeopathy based on a directive from the Homeopathy Council. This is very shameful of the government...protecting pseudoscience and it's practitioners from scientific scrutiny. This is the post: instagram.com/p/DZVLii3AdTQ/…

The Modi regime has hollowed out this country: “In the mobile app, if we enter that a household has a tin roof, we are asked by our superiors to change it to concrete. Are we supposed to lie? Similarly, if the house does not have a toilet and occupants are defecating in the open, we are told to check if there is a toilet nearby, even that of a neighbour or a relative, which they may be using occasionally or even a public urinal. Then the entry can be changed from ‘open defecation’ to having access to a toilet.”

@Ancapta only changes C's knowledge of A knowing that C knows A's state, and it does point to A's state (whether you're gay or not)

@Ancapta to elaborate - in the riddle, the "common knowledge" is important because its information needed at the end of the recursion, and it doesn't point towards anyone in particular. in your case, it (continued)
