Please share any first hand experience if you have faced any internet blockade anytime in last few years. I am seriously skeptical of the news portals now a days.
The reason for my skepticism is that I have never faced internet censorship. I was in Delhi till last June.
- srean 6y agoWhether you face it or not depends on how often you have questioned or criticized the govt
- jangid 6y agoI doubt the technical feasibility of this. How can internet be blocked only for one person in a city? There are gazillion ways to access internet.
- srean 6y agoFor the technicaly informed and with enough money yes one can find a way to circumvent censorship. Govts make sure or tries to make sure that such means are illegal - even better, morally equivalent to terrorism
- avh02 6y agoThere's plenty of systematic[1] as well as "oh there are protests, let's turn off internet in the area" types of censorship[2] [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship_in_India#Timeline_of_censorship https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship_in_India#T...
