POWER OF THE INTERNET






POWER OF THE INTERNET



Many times, me who write this physically have heard that elected leaders of nations fear the use of the Internet when people are protesting or there is civil unrest.

The popular opinion from what me who write this physically have heard sometimes is that an incumbent government is at risk from the Internet in a time of social unrest.

Me who write this physically have the exact opposite opinion. Hopefully, this should make legal governments appreciate the value of the Internet and or Telecommunications services and not undermine them.

In any location where there is any form of social unrest, the expectation of people within and outside that location is that the legal and incumbent government will legally solve the situation to enable people to live in peace and go about their legal and legitimate duties freely.

This requirement means that, from the view of every other stakeholder except the legal government, the responsibility to make peace and secure lives and property lies with the legal and incumbent government in that location. Because of this, the legal and incumbent government needs all the legal information it can legally get to legally and completely understand that situation which may not always be what it appears to be.

What happens when a legal and or incumbent government shuts down the Internet and or telecommunications networks is that it starves itself of important information from citizens and people which may be instrumental in resolving the situation.

It's like trying to find a needle in some hay and switching off the lights while trying to find it. It actually makes it harder to achieve.

However, what happens when a legal government, legally allows continuous information flow and Internet access?

The legal government will be legally  provided with an abundance of information from all sorts of people within and outside that location. This means the real requirement of the legal government is to be able to legally sieve through the information and categorise the information.

It will become very clear to the legal government exactly what is happening. This is very important. Sometimes in such situations, some crimes are committed by those trying to appear as protesters. Without a legal, open and free Internet, such information may not be known or may be arduous to corroborate if known.

As a result of this, a legal government helps protect itself if it allows freedom of information even during social unrest and or crisis.

This does not delve into hate, racist, ethnic or any type of speech. The focus is that a legal government would be seen as responsible for situations of unrest and needs as much legal information as feasible. There are always people who want to be honest. In addition, the Internet also self-corrects. If something is false, it will eventually be proven to be false and if something is veracious it will eventually be proven to be veracious. A legal government should always be able to confirm if information is accurate or inaccurate legally and this builds the confidence of the people. This confirmation of the accuracy of information is the most important aspect and with that keeping on the Internet would be an asset to any legal government.
