My experience is likely atypical. None of my coworkers who did a standard job faced these specific issues although a few business partners did. I refused to pay bribes or strike "deals" with established businesses and that's business 101 in India. I also dont respond well to threats or attempts at restricting my freedom without good cause. Most Indians don't take the path I chose to take in life and didnt get exposed to the same things but the random death is still a thing (although the type that hangs out here on HN arn't aware of how many die in freak train/car/electricity/machete accidents because they themselves lead a very posh life isolated from reality.) I am told things have changed for the better over the last two decades. I really hesitate to find out and confirm though.
