Most Indian government bureaucrats won't understand tech. Court judges are even worse; not only will they not understand tech, but as unelected officials they don't even particularly care about the economy, and are accountable to no one but themselves.

My favorite instance is the Delhi High Court ordering all registrars in India to stop selling domain names with the string amul in them[0]
> Domain registrars restricted from selling or offering Amul suffixed, prefixed or combination name websites as per the court order are Freenom, Name Cheap, Big Rock and GoDaddy.
Clearly, scammers in India can't figure out how to buy domain names outside india.
