First you say "not at all" and then you say "stop complying". If your employees stop complying with the orders coming from the angry men with guns held to said employees' heads, someone's going to get shot - and it's going to be the telecom employees. That's significantly more than a financial hardship and I cannot grasp how you think it could possibly be otherwise. On Mon, Apr 26, 2021 at 5:57 PM scott <surfer@mauigateway.com> wrote:

Scott, are you saying that employees of Telenor and Ooredoo are “facilitating violent repression” by following the orders of soldiers holding guns to their heads?

No. Not at all. Of course not. That would be ridiculous. I meant to say,"Myanmar’s two foreign-owned telecom operators, Telenor and Ooredoo..." should stop facilitating the repression by complying "...with numerous demands from the military, including instructions to cut off the internet each night for the past week, and block specific websites, such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram." And, yeah, that means financial repercussions for the companies.
My understanding of the rules of nano guess that there is to be no “naming and shaming“. please retract your post.

What? You know folks do that all the time. Did I miss the change in rules? If it makes you or others feel better...I retract the post.
I was having a bad day (Monday) and saw this. It made me feel better about the crap I am going through today and thought it might be the same for other ops. I also found it interesting that they were manipulating DNS servers with false IP addresses. I wonder if the people can use a different DNS server than the two ISPs?
