- Experts and also the UN(United States) wants to shut down the network affecting the internet and broadcast stations.
- Those shut downs are called "kill switches" they are rare to see but now they are been used in many states due to protests, marches, and in civil unrest
- Some experts say that this is unconstitutional, that is not in the constitution so they wont be violating our rights but the other side says the opposite because as U.S citizens we have the right to our freedom physically and in social media.
- Some organizations try to saved the shutting down of cell phones in 2011 so the government wouldn't shut down our phones due to the kill switches.
- The declaration also says that its not okay to do that because the U.S government intelligence agency is violating our privacy and our freedom in the internet so they can not do the kill switches in U.S citizens.
