How can we punish African governments for shutting down the Internet?
- oriettaxx 7y agothe sentence "Perhaps governments should be punished at an ICANN level, where allocation of IP addresses are restricted?" is totally unreadable I did not make any research, this is just my MHO (I have in mind Ethiopia, and I exclude electoral days): * governments of poor countries do not have $$$ to control the internet (society), so in case of a threat they just close it down: it is a total mess, the gov. knows it (and their PM is a young tetchy guy), but they cannot afford alternatives. * gov. of rich countries do have cash to use the internet to control people, and the last think they want is not having the internet the issue is very serious A fake video, published in specific moment, can be a catastrophe
