Company want to increase monetize all users and make it mandatory which has been Voluntary till now.
Keyword is 'Mandatory' ~
Government wasn't allowing it and silently protecting it's people because it would ultimately add to monthly bill and increase load on consumer.
A Hero came.
He spoke for 'Ordinary' people portraying companies as Villain.
Hero was praised by all.
Government sighed. It knew it would lose now.
Company snakingly smiled.
Sometime later, Govt accepted Hero's demand for 'PEOPLE' as 'PEOPLE' on Hero's side.
Company reluctantly agreed too but asked for minor/minimal very cheap now 'mandatory' yearly fee.
Hero said, 'Yeah its alright.'
Govt. lost its control over it. It's mid year of 2026.
Everybody Happy.
Hero smiled. Company smiled.
Govt said 'Whatever' it Taxed it and then, auctioned more 'space' and it too smiled in the end.
Company for first two year only charged 'minimum' mandatory fee but then came 'Hammer'!
Everybody Happy phase!
But, The 'People' didn't realize what they bought into. They made something 'essential' & 'Free' into a 'mandatory' bill by themselves and gave the handle to corporate!
Your Bank, WhatsApp, and Govt ID are all 'bound' to that Ship, you cannot leave anyway but it was still 'voluntary' before.
Fools were those who praised 'Hero' and thought he was asking for them!
It depends on Data itself.
If it's gaming files or chat logs or active databases, then keeping it compressed will cost you much more and would be inefficient even with modern hardware.
But simple pics, files or videos which you open or watch once a month or two, keeping it decompressed is criminal.

Indian officials are all corrupt and bla bla, but come on, don't blame this on Indian authorities.
Most Indians try to be over-smart when buying land and attempt to grab so-called "open" or "banjar" land.
They never paid for it, and the authorities never granted permission. Authorities usually act on such land only when an accident happens, someone complains, or the government itself has a project there.
@Pirat_Nation Even at that speed the 6th Gen PCIe just barely fills data hunger for B200s for training models~
It's will be only used for GDS, where SSD → GPU and not old way where data travelled from SSD → CPU → RAM → GPU.
@IndianTechGuide Govt should mandate datacenters to adopt Closed Loop System. In traditional 1MW DC, can save ~63,000 L water/day.
It would need initial water and then just 5% or less periodically.

MeitY (Feb 2026 IT Rules) - 3-hour takedowns~
@IndianTechGuide Big Tech spent a decade burning cash to train on Indian data. Now that we’re shifting from 'free' to a 'paying' users & an exit would be a historic fail.
You stayed when we were a 'cost'—you can't leave just as we open our wallets.
Common, Just pay more. 'Fairness' is new tax.
AI is a convenient scapegoat.
We keep ignoring that US shifting that service market to LATAM (nearshoring) and doing it very fast.
GCCs have stopped being back-offices and are now cannibalizing the actual business contracts that once fueled the Big 5.
Also, GCCs in India are hiring very fast and growing rapidly by eating away Experienced Workers from Big 5 of India.
1,850 GCCs~ keeps taking in professionals from service sector of India. They have grown from 1.2m in 2022 to 2.35m employees, this year. That's Hiring Growth of 18% – 27% annually~
GCCs in India aren't part of Nifty so their growth which directly related to loss of IT Nifty gets sidelined, which only tracks big, listed Outsourcing/Service firms~
Without hate, understanding Math's ...
Prices can't drop.
1. E20 means the pumps need to upgrade pipelines & tanks. That takes more money and so, no reduction in cost.
2. 95 RON becomes new normal, instead of 91 RON.
We will take a hit in Average (4%-7%), so instead of gain we do end up losing :D
