As a consumer in India I’m so happy at least some part of this government is doing what it’s supposed to do.
A century of unchecked lobbying is pretty much the reason why the US is at the state it is. The difference I’ve seen between how things run in india and the states is that in India what’s illegal and called corruption is called legal and lobbying here.
What exactly are you worried about ? Clicking authorize on nytimes subscription every month?

- bobthepanda 5y agoWhy is it bad? One of the first pieces of advice for anyone sorting out personal finances is "figure out what subscriptions you aren't using." Cancelling in many cases is an anti-pattern (looking at you, NYT)
- blntechie 5y agoBecause for NYTimes e.g. they don't allow online cancelation and need to through the phone retention loop. RBI mandate thing could have been implemented better but I absolutely support the idea that recurring payment control should be with the consumer and not the merchant.
