What a joke!

All this big talk about moving away from @Microsoft @Azure within a week for this most bullshit-iest of reasons when Ola's workload is primarily on @awscloud .

This thread will show document all the critical resources of @Olacabs that are hosted with @awscloud...
⁃Since LinkedIn is owned by Microsoft and Ola is a big customer of Azure, we’ve decided to move our entire workload out of Azure to our own @Krutrim cloud within the next week. It is a challenge as all developers know, but my team is so charged up about doing this.

@Microsoft @Azure @awscloud @Olacabs is the first non-AWS hosted domain we have come across so far.

But even that is not on Azure but it uses @Akamai Edge CDN.

@Microsoft @Azure @awscloud @Olacabs @Akamai I missed posting earlier in the thread.

@Microsoft @Azure @awscloud @Olacabs @Akamai And while we are at it we may as well look into the fabulous Ola @Krutrim AI.

And instead of doing the hard work. I decided to ask it directly.

It says it is hosted on its own cloud.

But is also available on other clouds like Azure/GCP/AWS. Where are you hosted Krutrim? Krutrim is hosted on its own cloud, where it offers access to its large language models and other open-source models hosted on its cloud. It is also available on other global cloud platforms like Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Amazon Web Services. Additionally, Krutrim also has a free version for personal and non-commercial use, called Krutrim Base, which is free of charge for up to 10,000 tokens a month.
@Microsoft @Azure @awscloud @Olacabs @Akamai @Krutrim So what exactly is @bhash moving out of Azure that is so challenging to move in one week?

Esp. when pretty much nothing critical to Ola seems to be running on Azure, Image
This is the most logical explanation.

Bah less than 2 hours and @OfficeChai and @livemint already have anonymous "news" articles up about this bullshit.

Did @Olacabs PR send them the article text?

Ok people! Listen up!

It's been 10 days since I started screaming into the void here and no main stream media outlet has bothered to report anything except parroting @DigiYatraOffice PR talking points.

It's time to kick this whole effort up a notch.

The plan is to build a consumer education website.

A one stop shop for everything DigiYatra.

(Un)Covering all aspects from technical/legal/privacy/investors/contractors etc.

Every little bit of information that can be sourced will be consolidated in one central respository.
This is too much effort for one person to handle.

So it will be a crowd sourced volunteer run project.

If this website is something you believe in would like to help make happen..

Drop a reply with your skills and what you can help with and I'll tag you in the next stages,

Yet another #DigitalIndia #FAIL

The idiots at @DigiYatraOffice didn't realise their package name didn't match their org/domain.

in.dataevolve.digiyatra /


ie. "Official" DigiYatra app was no different from malicious apps pretending to be them. play.google.com/store/apps/det…

Image
@DigiYatraOffice Google doesn't allow you to change your package name.

So they have no choice but to force everyone to install their "new" app to lend their app some semblance of credibility.

More like #WeFuckedUp

org.digiyatra.org
play.google.com/store/apps/det…

Image
@DigiYatraOffice And this gets even better...

What is this "Dataevolve" company that built and likely was controlling the "official" @DigiYatraOffice app all these years?

It's an OPC Pvt Ltd aka "One Person Company" not very different from a Sole Proprietorship concern. Image

LATE BREAKING: @UIDAI Director (Authentication and Veririfcation Division) has written to various agencies last month(Dec '23) stating that Aadhaar is not valid proof for Date of Birth. Image
@UIDAI Maharashtra govt dragged UIDAI to court because an accused in a murder case had 2 different Aadhaar cards and claimed to be a juvenile based on the date of birth in one of them.

And UIDAI suddenly gained enlightenment that their @13footwall secured database is "in toto" garbage. It is further stated that in toto the capturing of date of birth is entirely based on information submitted by the resident and hence, burden of proving the date of birth of any person lies with the concerned resident.
@UIDAI @13footwall Literally *EVERYTHING* recorded by @UIDAI is "as claimed by the resident, on the basis of documents submitted by them"

So how can Aadhaar verify someone's IDENTITY and ADDRESS "on the basis of documents submitted by them" but not verify the DATE OF BIRTH from very same docs? Image

Another #SwiggyScam 🧵

Recently noticed that all Swiggy txns were for whole figure amounts, while other card txns still had paisa amounts.

Dug a bit and discovered @Swiggy used charge the exact amount to the paisa once upon a time but have since started salami slicing. Image
@Swiggy And it's not Swiggy just stealing a few extra paisa per order.

Eg.
626.57+35.24+2.00+28.00-52.99+33.09 = 671.91

Instead of adding 9 paisa to round up to the whole rupee, @Swiggy charges Rs.3.09 extra instead.

Absolutely no justification for this. Image
@Swiggy At Swiggy's scale, even 10 paisa per order would add up crores of rupees per year.

And this amount is being tacked on **AFTER** tax.

So how are they accounting for crores of extra income they are literally stealing without providing any service to or even informing customers?

The best @Meta can claim 20 hours after a story broke is "documentation ***APPEARS*(* to be fabricated"?

The story has a full incident review report with a Case ID.

Publish the real report or full out claim fabrication without any weasel words @andymstone . Image
@Meta @andymstone And here's proof that @andymstone's public claims were pure BS with weaselly "appears" for CYA purposes.

And @Meta has indeed provided special privileges to the BJP IT Cell.

Shame on you @andymstone and @finkd for enabling fascists!

@Meta @andymstone @finkd Not only are they enabling fascists in India.

@Meta also has an internal blacklist of journalists trip-wired to flag employees to their Director of Comms.
