    My guess is click farms with some unknown custom made os that skew that data?

    That also might be a source of Linux users hence the relatively high market share of the OS?

    Not to mention that India still has a lot of call centers (some for scams) that may use Linux because it's free (compared to a windows license)

    A lot of people who work in those call centres are uneducated and don't know shit about tech, they're only parroting off a script. In those call centres they use windows 7 still and don't even know about the existence of linux. Also piracy is big in India so they don't care if linux is free. And most of all their victims/"customers"(old people) don't use linux so they have no reason to either. It's just the fellow Indian nerds using Linux.

    Yeah, if you look at some of those YouTube channels that scam the scammers, you'll usually see that the scammers are all running Windows.
