Disclosing upfront, I wrote 3 stories (op-ed) pieces for #CashlessConsumer on digital payments.

The most recent one mentioned #TekFog in pass by manner - while trying to convey impact of payments data disclosure by Razorpay.

What @RBI won't tell you is there is no way to set limits for #UPI and #Aadhaar, where frauds can and do happen without limits. @RBIsays @DasShaktikanta @nsitharaman #CashlessConsumer

Limits are only available for cards and this parity is anti competitive.

I have been relatively off from #CashlessConsumer, but its that time now - #PaymentsPricing (public) consultation is due on Oct 3 for "Discussion Paper on Charges in Payment Systems" https://www.rbi.org.in/Scripts/PublicationsView.aspx?id=21082

#CashlessConsumer #RTI We asked @SEBI_India about the public consultation held for changing the listing process using #UPI. Information denied, because "public" consultation discuss national security concerns.

#CashlessConsumer - Early thoughts on privacy aspects of #AccountAggregator - and complete lack of counterparty privacy.

#CashlessConsumer had noted about this geo-coord collection for every txn as a key surveillance concern back in 2017 - https://medium.com/cashlessconsumer/ambigous-specification-doesnt-give-clarity-on-surveillance-e5b31c5abea

#CashlessConsumer followed for 2 years with #RBI to stop this consent-less fetch of bill data by fintechs - the free data leak of all bills continues with #BBPS and that includes school fees.

More small victories. @iunesl has now removed "Acceptance of Financial Information for individuals from Regulated Financial Credit Card Providers" from their 2022 price list entirely, hopefully no longer collect such data. #SaveOurPrivacy #CashlessConsumer cc @sarveshmathi

This #AmbedkarJayanti - we need him more than ever, as a key construct of the economy - currency - is going to undergo 'experimentation' with #CBDC this year.

#CashlessConsumer wishes for a digital currency that is fair and just & in line with constitutional values. #JaiBhim

#CashlessConsumer @NPCI_NPCI mandates all #UPI ecosystem participants to enable reversal processing for Online Dispute Resolution #ODR by Sep 30, 2022 failing which they will be barred from onboarding new customers.🥢

The (well meaning) policy of @RBI to redacting respondant info and providing only the response to consultation means - #CashlessConsumer can be interpreted as 'industry' :)

We need to have open public consultations - 'semi-private' consultations are not doing good.
