Shiv, the points you raise are answered by Udhay and Venky, so I won't repeat what they say. But I'm a bit surprised that while you object to the government's actions, you don't support such protests. Journalists should just cover page 3 parties then, no?
Venkat, you wrote: "Do you really believe that the people at the lowest rung of the ladder in care about their bank/credit card company?" I don't think people at the lowest rung have the access to compile such data. It is in the companies' interests to deny them such access and build in safeguards. I'd be surprised if that is not the case, and would love to be enlightened by an insider. BTW, Gautam, that Ars Technica piece makes assumptions about the government's motives that I do not subscribe to. Misuse is not the purpose of this move, but a likely consequence.
