The official #Aadhaar #android app is sending an SMS to authenticate the user. In general, to avoid abuses, you add a sending rate limit. The user has to wait 2 minutes before resend the SMS. @UIDAI did not implement this kind of limit in the app. What are the consequences?

As u know I recommend to
#DestroyTheAadhaar ASAP not just remove a petty little app with less 1-5 million downloads in a population of billion+ where 50% don't even have a basic phone. But in spirit of learning, scientific spirit and some critique I do try to follow what u say.1 reply 2 retweets 1 like -
So do help me grasp this one, which I have some problems understanding what you are trying to say. I'll try to break down my confusion into specific questions:

1) I can understand that Aadhaar app is trying to send an OTP for auth, because that's a parameter of authentication as well as eKYC API, but non-mandatory (that's terrible) as far as I understand. Do you mean OTP it sends is an SMS it first receives or does it send own TOTP?

I guess what he is trying to say is that a built in limit for the number of SMS retries the App would make before timing out as a security measure.
