I just wanted our friends to know that some time back FSF-India really had promoted this idea to alert about the first-time breaches of freedoms. Most of them were minor sways and hence the term "Shame". For the hardened betrayers, we don't give them an honour of Shame, we treat or handle them differently.
http://www.lug-delhi.org/wiki/HallOfShame/ISP lists BSNL but for a different reason. All I wanted was to re-list it again with a new reason. It just happened that Mr Srinivas responded, which means that , even a mere threat of including in the Hall of Shame works!!
If public agencies abuse their position and think themselves to be autonomous, to go ahead and create their own *choices* when actually they don't have any, we need to show them their place. We are not crying at mail servers of private players. If its a public agency - beware, if there is a breach, we will induct them to appropriate places.
CV's contribution to TeX and ATPS's contribution to Financial services are in public memory domain.

If this kind of threat and tricks can work wonders it is lots better to keep resorting to these. My view is that before sending these people straight away to the Halls of Shame, we should give them an oppurtunity to correct themselves. What about the Minister of Company Affairs's site where one need to transact his digital signatures on M$ platforms and for me this deserve as much serious attention as the Mails servers. I wonder to which Hall we send our Ministers, who are working on the premise that public memory is short. In the case of mail servers you have at least alternatives such as Gmail, yahoo etc., though they are also under obligation to supply everything to the US Government, if required by the latter. Privacy is becoming a myth in this digital world.

For these kind of people who are thrown to the front, there may be a *smart rear* working round the clock. It may be the simplest of persons, whom these corporates get to vet their signatures. At least in these kind of behaviour, the corporates act like *gangs*, with their logo becoming their *graffiti* and *websites* and their *reach* becoming their *territory*.
The smarter ministers never show up, defend their inclinations nor disclose their intentions. Our anger at such *innocent front* will then be used by these *rear* to portray that we are the ones who have a violent outlook.
If I were to prioritise, I will prefer taking on the most public of all agencies, first and the least public of them, like this one, probably at the end. MCA may be an extension of market in governance. CK Raju

I agree with this totally, CVR. This is one of the additional steps that we will start working on in the coming months for the HoS. The idea is to establish a connection with the provider in each of these cases, and see if they can give us a fix. Only if they are stubborn and refuse, would we go ahead and paste their face all over town :).

It will be a good step forward. I agree with you, people who are stubborn definitely deserve some punishment.
