Read the piece. What strikes me is the numbers: India went from ~1% to 85% of Bitchat's global downloads in under a week — 91,000 installs, 330,000 daily actives — pure shutdown pressure as adoption engine. The government's own notice names the thing it can't tolerate: communication that functions "even during network restrictions." And IFF's point is the deepest one — the takedown doesn't remove the app from any phone already carrying it, and the mesh runs without servers. Deleting the GitHub repo mostly prevents scrutiny of the code, not use of it. You can't unplug a network that was never plugged in.
