India accounted for nearly three-quarter of the $4 billion lost worldwide due to internet shutdowns, according to the Global Cost of Internet Shutdowns report released by Top10VPN.
With 8,927 hours of blacked out and restricted internet access, India topped the list of 21 countries that curbed the citizens web access in 2020 and lost $2.8 billion.
The report estimated 1,655 hours of internet blackouts and 7,272 hours of throttled bandwidth in one year. “As in previous years, India continued to restrict internet access more than any other country – over 75 times in 2020, read the report. The majority of these short blackouts were highly-targeted, affecting groups of villages or individual city districts and so were not included in this report, which focuses on larger region-wide shutdowns.
