Last week, leading Virtual Private Network providers, Surfshark, NordVPN and ExpressVPN, withdrew their servers from India. The VPNs have alleged that cybersecurity directives issued on 28 April 2022 by the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team would render their privacy-oriented business model meaningless, as they require them to log details of all the persons who access their servers. These directives will come into effect on 28 June 2022. However, CERT-In’s directive has met with severe backlash from various other technological companies, since they feel that this is just the beginning, and the fallout will not be limited to the exit of VPNs.
