India bans 59 Chinese apps, including TikTok, ShareIt, UC Browser

[Naofumi]

If they are not being used, why this publicity? Who is Modi fooling?

Of course, us.

Most of the startups fail. Wake me up when you have any successful product to show.

Are you living on an Island?

Slowly,steadily but surely lets detach from Chinese economy

 

[Musings]

China
Take huge chunk of land
Butcher 20 Indian soldiers
Release prisoners and consolidate land
India
Ban a few Chinese apps

Gods sake don’t these morons have any self respect? Indians ought to be ashamed at their governments response.

wow smart move, we're talking a loss of 1.4 billion people market....

We already have 500 million smartphone users. It's nice to leverage them, creating barriers for Chinese products is the way to go right now.

I wonder what do these pathetic Indians do when China takes another chuck of their land in the next few weeks.

Smartphone users and their data is only valuable because you can identify consumer trends. A ***** using a knockoff phone he bought for a few hundred rupees isn't a valuable target demographic.

Modi is pulling wool over the eyes of these gullible Indians.

Lol banning teenagers app.

For real?

How silly.

 

[CAPRICORN-88]

Right now I am not buying anything that origin from India or USA out of FEAR of uncontrollable COVID19 pandemic in these nations. Used to be China in early this year.

The latest COVID cases and outbreak in Beijing is due to tainted imported meat from Germany and Europe.
When one is not rich, they don't have the luxury of being selective leaving alone boycott.
BTW the majority of Indians are only using FREE apps.
A very tall order by silly and childish politicians.

Smartphone users and their data is only valuable because you can identify consumer trends. A slumdog using a knockoff phone he bought for a few hundred rupees isn't a valuable target demographic.

Some dummies try to be expert at everything. What's a knockoff phone. Every phone has an IMEI number, that's given by the manufacturer and all phone companies in India are branded. You can't get a smartphone for few hundred rupees, the cheapest smartphone costs INR 3 to 4k.

It doesn't matter who uses them, a poor person watching youtube is just as same as a rich person watching youtube, what matters is Ads. Make a product popular, and get people talking. If, say 100 million people download a product, it's a popular product and invites more downloads worldwide.

No matter how you try to spin it and mock it, market size matters.
