The fact that it works on BSNL means absolutely nothing. The implementation of blocking across ISPs is extremely inconsistent: https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.08590

That is not the same thing as being intolerant of pro-India views.

BSNL being a PSU is a good litmus test for this. > /r/india heavily skews liberal and anti-Modi. That is not the same thing as being intolerant of pro-India views. It's certainly very liberal in banning people whose views goes against those held by the mods (one of whom is apparently Pakistani). Little wonder r/indiadiscussions is filled with complaints about the blatant censorship over at r/india.

Yes because clearly, a company which runs a large fraction of the national telephony/internet network, and regularly injects obnoxious ads into plain HTTP pages, can't find it within its abilities to write a few simple DNS/firewall rules, simply because some 'woke' dude on the intertubes will wake up to the 'evil plans' of the Gobermint. Keep wallowing in your 'conspiracy' theories my dude.

> /r/india heavily skews liberal and anti-Modi. That is not the same thing as being intolerant of pro-India views. Oh it is now anti Modi. I remember back in 2014 when every other comment and post was 'wow Modi will transform this country, Mumbai and Delhi will become New York' I used to get banned just for asking 'how will he get the money to do so?' or for asking proof on past experiences as the PM's CM term of the state of Gujarat wasn't exactly as promising but /r/india had lost their mind worshipping Modi and hating Congress. They now hate both Congress and BJP :D
