India hurts itself more than it can hurt Google with this idiotic stunt. The high speed Internet availability in India is pathetic and so the revenues for Google in India should be relatively very small. But the perception that the government is fucking with Google is very bad for India.

This coming from politicians who are the most corrupt is sad. India is not in as powerful a position as China is to make these kinds of demands. They are stupid enough to try to saw off the branch they are sitting on.
