YANGON, Feb 6 (Bloomberg): Myanmar’s military-run government ordered internet service providers to block Twitter and Instagram until further notice, tightening a crackdown on social media to stifle dissent against this week’s coup.
The directive received Feb. 5 from the transport and communications ministry is in addition to the temporary prohibition on Facebook, according to Telenor Myanmar, one of two wholly foreign-owned mobile operators in the country.
