This is a ridiculously hard question to answer correctly.
At best I can point out that theres 2 parts to this - the internet infrastructure and the regulatory frameworks.
Till now, we've worked without having to explicitly state the philosophical underpinnings of the web, nor convert that into a law/legal framework.
The slow lumbering leviathans have finally caught up to the nimble minnows of the 2000s. Telecom operators and other incumbents, including governments now know how the web works, and how to make it work for them (to the detriment of the commons).
We can limit the damage of the second, by help build and maintain transparent regulatory frameworks, and in particular - be able to mobilize rebuttals or examples to future papers released by TRAI, or other GoI institutions.
Whats learned here and other countries over the next 5 years, can be used to push for a stronger global framework.
