Summary

Internet Society, Access Now, and Open Observatory of Network Interference (OONI) are among the nonprofit organizations that rely on Cloudflare’s Radar data to track government-mandated shutdowns of the internet. These organizations use a combination of direct observation, local media reports, and information from technical sources like Radar to verify instances of internet blackouts ordered by governments in various countries around the world. The goal is not only to document these incidents accurately but also to raise awareness about their impact on human rights and economic growth.
