The union government reportedly stated in a filing before the Delhi High Court (HC) in a case challenging the VPN-related guidelines issued by the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team that virtual private networks (VPNs) are highly prone to misuse (CERT-In).
The government stated in an affidavit filed in the Delhi High Court that retaining information such as subscribers’ names and addresses would not ‘alter the nature’ of VPN. According to the Centre, both state and non-state actors could use total anonymity in cyberspace to wreak havoc. The government is embroiled in a legal battle with SnTHostings, a homegrown VPN service provider that has challenged the VPN guidelines issued in April.
