Focusing on the phenomenon of internet shutdowns, particularly in developing countries like India, the book explores the intersection of social media, political economy, and government policy. It examines the motivations behind these shutdowns, often aimed at controlling information dissemination, and contrasts them with initiatives like "Digital India." The author delves into the implications of digital spatiality, defining the digital space and its broader significance in contemporary society. This analysis offers fresh insights into the complexities of digital communication and governance.
