India’s number of content takedown demands on Twitter/X has soared in recent years, and they are being complied with more than they used to.

India not allowing a good Bitcoin exchange and taxing 30% of Bitcoin sells on short and long term speaks to this government action. It’s hypocrisy if you see Indian stock market doing 25% on nifty 50 index with all the money printing. Indian people follow rules of government by not purchasing Bi...
