India grapples with the market power of big e-commerce players

I'm pleased someone is. I was looking for a USB LTE Modem the other day and I checked the major online retailers in UK, DE and ES. The vast majority of the products being sold (in so far as any information was provided) did not support the majority of frequency bands used for LTE in any of those countries: in other words, not fit for purpose. And that's before we get to the items that are constantly in "flash" sales, or whose reviews are obviously fake.

Bit of a shame it's so transparently protectionist rather than enlightened consumer empowerment, but if that's what it takes...
