Do u think if Nigeria ask all social media handlers in the world to disconnect from her nation is possible for u to move on?
They have privacy policy and regulations which must comply with the social media regulations of any nation. In Arab nations u can't access porn sites talkless of social media madness.
Do u k ow how people live in Eritrea and north Korea?
Please be guided by sense of decorum not arrogance that can't yield anything good. Do you think the way and manner youths acted is something worth praising? The whole world just saw a group of beasts in a jungle not the way u see it; people stealing, killing, burning, destroying and spreading illiteracy and ignorance in the name of liberty!

The government can't ask tech companies to leave their country, the highest they can do is take them to court or block the sites. If they block the sites we would bypass it, if they block VPNs we would build a mod app of the social media and host it through blockchain. There is also Bridgefy app, that does not require internet access to function just the phone bluetooth and the government can't block the blue tooth. If they succeed all we need to do is to create tweet bots that will continue tweeting #EndSars to make it continue trending until we find a way out, so there is nothing the government can do. We planned for situations like this, this current generation runs the Internet and you can't bully us on our own turf.

Are these people still nursing the idea of shutting down social media for real? But how would they go about it? Nigerians will just adjust to VPN.

These people should not risk the mother of all protests o or massive bombardment of the country.

My dear the elites in the Arab nations assess porn. Haram is only for the poor. The elites in North Korea assess their social media accounts. This is software, there will always be a way to by pass it. Social media has come to stay. Please advise me, where can I get VPN?

Nothing but the truth!

How did some people misunderstand Desmond Elliot asking that the speaker 'ADDRESS' the impressions social media influencers and the youths were popularizing about their bad governance and rotten system, and interpret it as meaning that he was asking that the government 'regulate' Nigerian social media altogether?

He expressed his dismay at the negativity and toxicity on Nigerian social media( which if we are to be realistic and sincere to ourselves we would agree to some extent).

At what point does this mean that he was asking the speaker to shut down or regulate social media?

Is Facebook not even already 'regulating' negativity on their platform by taking down posts with excessive abusive speech?

Does Nigeria operate a communist system like China that we would assume that regulating social media is even possible?

How can we rush to conclusions without fully analysing language and syntax?

Some Naija youths, think please.

Dear Nairalanders, beware of these full-time Syncophants zombies above. They are paid to derail every news using political, ethnic and religious frivolities. Their job is to defend the many evils of the APC government no matter how bad. I pity them sha because it's not easy to sell your conscience for a token of 30k monthly.

ehinmowo:
It seems these folks are senile. The are enough laws criminalizing misinformation, fraud etc on the internet.

The only problem is enforcement. If I truly want to spread fake news, dies NIgeria have the technology to trace me? What else can they do apart from IP and IMEI tracing? tracing Work on development and forget this trash.

even ip cant trace you bro.

4ckyou:
How can they do that? We can just change our VPN to another country na

As simple as that...

Pls Mr minister should confirm if they were the one who created ithe social media in the first place jokers

You morons can't understand that social media is not a light bulb that u can switch off and on. Even if FG has the power to it which they can't, somebody will either embezzle the money meant for the process or give the contract to his brother that has no idea on how to format a flash drive not talk of shutting down the Internet. The best they can do is to ask the ISPs in Nigeria to block certain websites and apps. Which dozens of simple vpn found on playstore or browsers like tor, opera can easily bypass.. 9ja no be China.

I'm talking abt national restrictions and u're telling me some elite can access it? This is impossible, it can only be imported. I'm talking abt something I knw not what others say base on ignorance!

All u said is not feasible at all. Do u think we're living in the world of anarchy were Google and Twitter will just operate in Nigeria without guidelines? If Nigeria ask Twitter to stop operating here based on regulated laws they'll definitely do so. The NSP will be asked to never allow any Nigerian subscribers to use their line to browse or access certain pages and u think it's difficult? I think the way u see govt and governance is the reason why our LEADERS are not taking us serious because at our age we should be thinking big with intellectual reasoning not mere hear-say or perception.

Stupid FG.

For the country to ban tech companies, they would need a valid reason, this is a democratic society man. I don't talk based on hearsay, I am a DevOps everything I have told you is very possible, from day one of the protest we already envisaged a possibility of the government shutting down the Internet, so what make you feel we are not prepared for this possibility?

You wont dare! There are laws in place to deal with fake news. We should be decent and use them!

The elites in north Korea have ways of accessing their social media accounts. As for Arab nations, they have their ways. If Chinese could still use Facebook despite it being banned in China, anything is possible. This is software. Unless they ban the app. Thanks for VPN. We move. There are so many social media apps. As Instagram and Facebook refused us from endsars , we got Twitter. My dear, the internet will always find a way to cross it

Which social media was shut down

All they will do is allow the dark web to flourish, then they will really see something. Mind the business that pays you. All these people refuse to work. Be going to meetings to share money. Go and work you won’t have to regulate social media.

As a tech guy, we can still shut you out, even with your VPN, it's just a route we won't want to take as an isp because we would lose so much. If things become unbearable from government, isp would oblige and do their bidding. The deeply rooted tech guys would pull through using other sophisticated means to still browse and access the internet, but we would still shut it down if hands are on deck....

Because they tried and failed!

that is why they didnt shut it down!

OLODO Government of APC and PDP

These Clowns just say rubbish and think they are Smart.
Do they think the Youths of today dont know how to bypass any Govt lockdown on Social media?
What are VPNS for?
How do Chinese and North Korean dissidents get their information to the wider world, despite Govt ban?
Abeg, make dem no vezx Nigerians o otherwise they will just be left behind.

as if they cam actually shut it down
mchewwwww

No be Naija we dey. People that can't invest in technology is talking about having the tech to shut people out. Don't worry, you will hear the story. Either the money will be embezzled or they will hire a novice to do the job. Go to the so called government websites and see how poorly they are developed. Common good website they no fit create na censorship they want do.
Leave these people we don see them finish

what's this one saying self is he crazy
