What are Internet Shutdowns?
We define an #internetshutdown as "a Government-imposed disablement of access to the Internet as a whole within a particular locality or localities for any duration of time".

There are two key-components to this definition: An Internet shutdown is always Government-imposed i.e. Internet Service Providers serving the locality in question are ordered by an agency of the Government to cut-off Internet services to that area.

An Internet shutdown always imposes a blanket ban on Internet access, where access to the Internet as a whole is disabled, and not a surgical ban, where access to particular content/services is disabled leaving access to other content/services unaffected.
