So this raises the question of why this would happen. Nothing in the article about it. What is the unrest referring to in the summary? Is it a net neutrality issue? Are they going to try to create their own internet separate from the global one?

The article probably doesn't mention why this happened because this is not a political news site.

I think you really need to read better international news sources.
