💨 Abstract
The article discusses widespread internet shutdowns across Russia, justified as security measures against Ukrainian drone attacks. Authorities have restricted cellphone internet and broadband connectivity in numerous regions, causing disruptions to daily life and services.Critics warn that these shutdowns legitimize widespread internet controls and could be misused by authorities. The move is seen as part of Russia's long-term effort to control online freedom, following previous censorship of websites, media, and social platforms.
