Trump appears to be mullling a major escalation of the trade conflict with India. Reuters reports that U.S. government might radically cut the number of H-1B visas issued to Indian tech workers unless India backs off on data localization requirements. https://t.co/ydRhWoHzAp

Why let Mastercard and Visa lobby against data localization rules in India when you can get TCS and Infosys do the same? Smart move by the US https://t.co/ij4R0RMW2Q

Unbelievable that a Republican is pushing a Big-Government "Internet Fairness Doctrine."

The #proposal is that any country that does data localization, then it (H-1B visas) would be limited to about 15% of the quota. It’s being discussed internally in the U.S. government. #H1b https://t.co/tvyggYCT3R

Why should the country's security be compromised for a few IT companies profits?
The US is just upset that their easy access to data for spying is going to go away. Dump the wasteful FATCA as well. https://t.co/Pj2qL2gn5q
