Until some website of some service you're using embeds an Indian-sourced JavaScript required for its support chat and you're unable to get a refund on a defective product you purchased.

Or worse, you were billed incorrectly by some US-based service, their support chat loads Indian assets, and they threaten to hit your credit score and send debt collectors after you if you don't pay up.

US consumer protection laws do not and CANNOT require US citizens to trust foreign agents. Period. There are other ways to extract a lawful refund.
