dc.description.abstractAn Institute for Human Rights and Business (IHRB) researcher spent three days at Telenor Pakistan’s headquarters to conduct research into the context of network disconnections and to document how Telenor Pakistan receives and acts on requests from the Government to initiate network shutdowns. Telenor Pakistan co-operated with IHRB’s request to visit company headquarters, making its staff available for interviews. The Government of Pakistan’s stated intention when blocking access to communication is primarily national security. The Digital Dangers project identifies a number of areas of concern including security, safety, free assembly, free expression and privacy.en
