How do you suggest in a country of fucking Billion people you would get people to use something? 40% people don't understand shit, doesn't care about privacy, they want food on their table, they want to get the money they rightfully earn. These people are less fortunate than many of us. With Aadhar and Household gas linked, they get the subsidy rightly in their bank account without paying every fucking agent that would loot them at any possible point.
I agree, making it mandatory for "Income Tax" is bit controversial. But even you also know how many people in India, rightfully pay taxes. The percentage is pretty damn low.
And frankly using Facebook and Twitter is not really a choice. It's a result of being Socially coerced into being on one of the platforms to not feel left out. And anyone who talks about privacy and openness would never be on either of these two if he really knows what he talks about.
Just a question to you. I can understand the problems faced by bribery and it being eradicated but how according to your argument can the person who is illiterate understand about privacy or for that matter things he/she is not expert in?
To elaborate it is not the responsibility of the illiterates or the people who are not knowledgeable to worry about the privacy. Instead it is the responsibility of the people implementing the system to make sure that all security and privacy is implemented and also the laws to be introduced to protect the common man.
This is the very reason the government has think tanks and expert advisors. It seems all these people have failed. When the system fails completely then again it is these same poor common man who will face the brunt presently seen or unseen.
