In the first six months of 2021, India saw 348.7 million VPN installations, a year on year growth of 671%.

VPNs are important because they:

💻 help secure user data (against commercial fraud)

💻 help journalists, activists & whistleblowers secure confidential information

💻 allow users to sidestep arbitrary website blockings (i.e. help in creating #netneutrality) 2/n
Under the guise of "women's safety", the Standing Committee on Home Affairs wants to ‘strengthen tracking and surveillance mechanisms’!

VPNs work by encrypting data traffic, which prevents your ISP from tracking your location or data. Keeping VPN services legal is essential. 3/n
