Hello,

I just want to say that according to the TRAI paper on page 34, point number 2.54 it says that global losses to telecoms due to 'lost' reveune of voice call etc will be $479 billion but that the profit to them from data will be 2.4 trillion, that's $2 trillion dollars of proflt, after adjusting for thier paltry losses.

I hate how they even call them OTT or Over The Top services. They say it's because those services run on top of infrastructure of the telcos but it kinda gives the impression like they're something extra. The name should also reflect that those services are the entire reason why anybody bothers to pay for internet at all nobody gets a 3G pack to just stare at 3 on their handset. They get it to use the over the top services.

The OTT's drive adoption of internet packs and useage of those packs.

In 2.60 they propose deep packet inspection, an invaisive technique that will necessarily have them monitor everything to check which sites you're going to. So say goodbye to privacy.

2.50 clains growth in 4G will result in ten times more subscribers to Indian telcos in 5 yeras.

2.12. Where they claim skype calls are loss of revenue but at 10paise/10 kb and the skype min data for a voice call at 30kbps, that's 60kbps to upload your voice and download the other's.

That's 450Kb per minute which means 4.5 rs/minute in data charges. This is the skype lost revenue they're whining about.

This is just getting started. I would request you to please consider this request of a common Indian who like million others support net neutrality but would know the means to voice it. 

Please don't let's the telcos, who already overcharge for sub standard service define how we use our internet. That's the only true democratic space we have.

Thanks,
