We are very complex nation, this won't work. Here education politics won't work. Only Religion and Cast policy matters to them, and they know common man(mass) don't use internet, so their is no opposition from that side. They can legislate whatever to hide mistake. That is the reason they wasted parliament session on cartoon discussion. Many Educated class don't give damn about politics.

I ever dreamed of a p2p information system. you start and save a piece of message on your computer, and this information will spread out to connected peers.

from the government side, they can't tell who is the message starter, and there are so many redundancies. There is no single server to block.

of course, there are concerns about spamming. But spams may be filtered by voting.

but the gov can use this feature to censor information.

difficult problem.

This website informs you how to file an RTI application about the blocked websites. They have a ready made template. They also have a template for a email to confront ISPs about the blocked websites.

We need to hurt them. They understand "vote-banks".

Let's form a vote bank that votes against the current incumbent for web censorship.

Vote. That is the most effective way to make your voice heard in a democracy.
