Never understood shutting down entire cellular networks for security reasons? How much productivity is loss, as a result? While protecting the safety of others, are you not compromising the safety of others? What if there's a personal emergency? There must be a better way.

they should use the jammer in designated areas for gathering instead of making whole city suffer.

bhayya govs did not care as its not going from their pockets yaar

 

[Trying to be honest]

No other easy and cheap way possible. Only other way is intercepting each msg, checking for terror or offensive keywords and blocking it. Would need a lot of computing power to achieve this real time and would be a big attack on privacy too.

It is understandable that terrorist and their sympathizers are upset at these measures as this is a great inconvenience for them, but most civilized people will be more than happy to go on one day without cell phone service to save lives.
