16. Why Set top box interoperability is not mandated in new regulations?
Source : TRAI FAQs
They have a point. Although the mammoth facelift TRAI is attempting to give to the broadcasting sector would have held its efficacy if the interoperability were to be deployed a priori. I would be surprised if TRAI officials are deluding themselves by believing that they will be able to curb piracy; which it seems is bound to be a game of cat and mouse in the foreseeable future. Perhaps they are acting out of ignorance of the current situation in this regard.
