The Internet has been cut in Myanmar for the 36th consecutive night

Which makes me to believe the country is beyond its own ability to recover.

Every period of relative normality Burma had was ending in total mess when bad actors catch their breath, and strike back.

Somebody else from outside must come, and fix it.

You think the Myanmar junta are marxist-leninists? That's the weirdest perspective I've seen on it all year.

When they’ve cut during the day they disrupt the whole economy, as well as their own communications. Great background here: https://www.newyorker.com/tech/annals-of-technology/in-myanm...

Exactly. It's not clear what's going on from the tweet or article.

I think it's an interesting question. How much do you weaken the opposition from limiting the internet to periods.

You can't stop chunks of information. Video still comes in and out. But you do stop the flow.

For instance the West is less interested in day old protest footage, than 'Breaking'.

they need it during the day for banks to carry out operations, etc.

More or less what Myanmar so called democratic government was doing to its Muslim Rohingya population was forgotten as the government was democratic. India had cut of internet for months in Kashmir but little news in the western media. Even today Chinese atrocities against Uighur minorities are talked about every week but no one talks about Kashmir or the other minorities in India being marginalized by the current Modi government. With the internet and all the news sources available you realize all the good evil, black and white paraded about in the media or global organizations has little to do with actuall ground realities but mostly propagandas of different countries and interests.
