The confusing thing is that googling "google advanced protection program" takes you to the en_in locale, even if you are in the US. An American has no clue what a crore is, so it is just an SEO failure on Google's part, which is funny. I didn't know there was an en_us equivalent to the page when I googled the topic.

Really?

It's ten million of something, or (currently) about $11,000 US dollars in money.

You might also see "lakh" which is one hundred thousand of something, or about $1100 when it's used to describe money.

Now you know.

Oops, you're right. Don't do currency conversions in your head, folks.
India really needs to adopt millions and billions.
