True, but my question here is: given that VPNs are pretty much essential for the way many large corporations work (they're not going to let employees access sensitive data over the internet in the clear), how does India, a country with a large tech presence and which promotes itself as a good place for software development, handle this?
- _jgdh 7y agoYou can use VPNs in other parts of the country, just not in the areas where internet access has been banned. While this is an egregious abuse of power and a gross violation of the rights of Kashmiris, it is not happening in the rest of the country.
- truncate 7y agoHow is use of VPN is enforced? Looking at credit card transactions? Use-cases like these makes cryptocurrency so much appealing. Where I can potentially spend my money like normal physical cash.

- sonicxxg 7y agoWell, it's just Kashmir, which is as close to become a tech booming region as those remote tribes in the middle of the amazon rainforest.
- selimthegrim 7y agoThere are online businesses, call centers, tech startups that have been affected. Maybe you would hear what they are saying if you weren’t too busy sneering.
- forgot_old_user 7y agoCan't they whitelist VPN access to corporate IPs?
