The Indian govt plans to introduce its proposal for a global regime for control over the internet at the UN General Assembly:

I guess people like you and I are getting under the Congress Party's skin. Thus, the party's need to throttle the internet itself. "Oh, a mosquito has bitten me - now let me burn down the forest"

Wikipedia bias
Sites like wikipediareview (as well as Wikipedia talkpages) are full
of detailed criticisms of prominent wikipedians like Slim Virgin and
Jzg. However, wikpedians who edit in less mainstream areas are not as
often criticized. In this draft, some criticism in India-related
articles is detailed. Bias occurs everywhere in wikipedia, but to keep
the draft concise, it is limited to this topic. (If the draft refers
often to the edits of just a few editors, it is not because they are
the most notable or because admins are more important, they are just
*by far* the most "productive" editors on wikipedia.)
BIAS
First it is very obvious that the most active Wikipedians, especially
also admins, are not unbiased editors as you would maybe expect from
an encyclopedia. Here are some examples of bias against Indians:
"Why are you giving so importance to a Third World Contry person like
Talageri? These religious beggers and low class people don't deserve
this much attention."
"what's happening? Are summer holidays over at American high schools,
and all the ABCD trolls flocking back to give Wikipedia grief? (ABCD
is a slur, ABCD=American Born Confused Desi)"
