  • kicked off the internet

    Still, due to political issues the openness of the internet is
    coming under increasing debate. Ukraine has asked that Russia
    be essentially kicked off the internet by killing their top-
    level domain names in DNS.

    Many other countries such as Russia and China effectively
    create their own internets by tightly controlling the internet
    inside their borders.
