The Indian government wants to completely ban Jack Dorsey's decentralized communication app, BitChat, within 3 hours. The official reason given is 'to maintain public order and prevent illegal gatherings,' but the truth behind it: BitChat doesn’t even need the internet, central servers, or phone numbers to operate—it relies entirely on Bluetooth mesh networking between devices. This week, authorities directly shut down mobile networks around the Capitol, but NEET protesters still managed to organize in real-time in a no-network environment using BitChat’s proximity relay. Previously, it was removed from app stores in specific regions twice because it was used as a networking tool during multiple protests. Jack Dorsey hit the nail on the head with this one: governments can never accept technology they can’t shut down at will. You can forcibly cut off fiber optics and mobile data, but you can’t stop two phones next to each other from sending data. Take it from me—BitChat can be a lifesaver in critical moments! #BitChat #Decentralization #FreedomOfSpeech
