You don't seem to understand governments.

They are controlling it because they absolutely understand, and can give a narrative of how anonymity can be used for nefarious purposes.

I support banning of tinted glasses, because, for the population and education level here, these measures are necessary. Because one rape is too many, and what is to be done ought to be done. For those unaware, this ban on tinted glasses in a car or a vehicle came about when there were a spate of rapes and assaults on women done in a moving car with tinted windows.

Unlawful assembly laws are there in many countries.

In India, it is used often, but generally when there is a communal angle involved. India sees many rallies and protests (there is one massive one going on right now).

A moving car? Gee, wonder why they didn't ban moving cars as well.
