india's e-commerce policy seems moronic as well: https://www.medianama.com/2019/03/223-the-draft-national-e-commerce-policy-a-case-of-excessive-regulation-of-market-places-its-stakeholders-and-dilution-of-the-concept-of-intermediaries/

I believe Estonia has friendly tie up with India and I know few people who have thought of starting their ventures there. Not sure if they have changed the laws 🙄

Estonia's part of EU. That was supposed to be a good thing. Until now.

What changed?

With due respect, I don’t agree with this comment. I’ve to explain a bit to tell you more. Data is the new OIL. E-comm is very crucial to trade industry and imports. Infact country’s economy depends on trade. So E-comm companies generate huge amount of data by which they know buying patterns, needs of a country at various seasons. It has long term implications. So govt’s should play a regulatory role in all these. Calling this havoc on startups, for industry is not right. It is a draft and yet to be discussed, debated. Importantly, I already know what popular companies is doing with this data. Small wholesale traders are having problems.
