Network effect will still take place with these apps. The average Indian does not know UPI is a framework. I have to explain that any UPI app can connect with any other UPI almost weekly. My father still thinks that Google Pay can only send

Yeah. I can see every website following step 0 because yladiz said so. Good way enforcing that with random websites. Take your privacy into your own hands, why leave it to others to implement. Many won't
