  • Apple and Google have removed several VPN applications, including Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1, due to government orders.
  • This action marks the first major enforcement of India's 2022 VPN regulations.
  • The Ministry of Home Affairs requested the removal based on cybersecurity requirements mandating VPNs to keep user records for five years.
  • Popular services such as Hide.me and PrivadoVPN were also affected by this enforcement.
  • Major VPN providers previously resisted these regulations, with some withdrawing their servers from India but still serving customers.
