No major firings have made the news, so we can only assume this official continues to direct policy, unburdened by sentience.
Even then, the government could pull such things off again easily in the name of national security. Just look at how we blocked Chinese apps in the wake of Galwan valley clashes of 2020.
The speculation I've seen on the other thread (linked below) seems to be mostly either "probably caught up in some pirate site takedowns" or "nobody knows, stop trying to guess, the government doesn't make sense and is run by monkeys" (the monkeys being their words, not mine).
They block first and ask questions later.
This has been a problem for years.
India has never, ever explained its blocking of videolan.org. Only spurious remarks were made by government officials, mostly from agencies that weren't involved in the blocking.
