Yes, I explained the similarities. Aadhaar is a core part of the 'India Stack', which is closely connected to the 'cashless' propaganda during the demonetization disaster.

Aadhaar was already flawed as a concept when it was introduced but over the last year there have been sudden mandates to link it to everything. Which makes it far more dangerous. We need to scale it back.

Demonentisation has nothing to do with cashless. it was an afterthought. So no connection to Aadhar.

So you are no different in making propaganda.

Aadhar is here to stay no matter how much fearmongerers whine. It's benefits outweighs risk. A good data protection law is what lacking.

Of course Adhar is good

But the shoving it diwn everyone's throats is a clear form of transforming this democracy into autocracy

Adhar is connected to your phone and internet and accounts. So if I make an anti PM statement, suddenly my bank account is frozen, electricity connection is gone (connected to adhar), my frying pan is connected to adhar so if I cook Poha, PM's sycophants can turn it into upma.

No tech is bad by its own right, the implementation is good or bad

And as far as 2014 implementation goes, adhar is bad
