A brief introduction to What a Database Base is.

Nigeria was one of the few sub-Saharan African countries without an experience of internet shutdown in 2023 as the region lost $1.74 billion to government-induced shutdowns in the year.

This was revealed in a recent report by Top10vpn, an international VPN review website. Ethiopia lost the largest amount to internet shutdown in the region at $1.59 billion, thus accounting for 91% of the total money lost by the region in 2023.

According to the report, the country recorded 14,910 hours of internet shutdown, which was implemented by the government to curtail protests. Sparked by religious tensions, authorities in Ethiopia restricted access to major platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, Telegram, and TikTok. This affected 29.8 million internet users in the country.

Other African countries that lost to internet shutdowns
Other African countries that lost to internet shutdowns in 2023 include Kenya, Algeria, Guinea, Sudan, Tanzania, Cuba, Chad, and Zimbabwe. In mid-November last year, Telegram was periodically blocked for over a week in Kenya due to an alleged leak of secondary school exam papers on the platform. This social media shutdown lasted 192 hours and cost $27 million in Internet restrictions.

Recall that Nigeria also topped Africa in terms of loss to internet shutdown in 2021 when the government banned Twitter (now X) From 5 June 2021 to 13 January 2022. According to the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), Nigeria lost an estimated N10.72 trillion to the ban.
Nigeria, however, did not record any shutdowns in 2023.
Global loss
Europe came first in terms of internet shutdowns in 2023 losing $4.02 billion to 1,365 hours of internet shutdowns that affected 182.59 people. Sub-Saharan Africa came in second after Europe, with $1.74 billion in losses spread over 30,785 hours and affecting 84.8 million Internet users. After Asia, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region ranked fourth with a $1.44 billion financial loss and 16,547 hours of disruption impacting 105.04 million users.

Russia suffered a higher financial loss of $4.02 billion, while Ethiopia, the oldest independent nation in Africa, came in second with a loss of $1.9 billion, above Iran’s $920.3 million.

North America experienced a 2-hour Internet outage in 2023, affecting 7.99 million Internet users and incurring a $1.8 million loss. South America, on the other hand, lost $79.9 million due to an Internet disruption that lasted 62 hours and affected 192.04 million users.

According to Top10vpn, the 2023 report shows that the global economic impact of internet shutdowns was down by 67% compared to 2022 but up by 45% in 2021. However, the duration of internet shutdowns went up by 18% compared to 2022 and up by 71.5% in 2021.

“We stand opposed to internet censorship and governments withholding access to the internet as a form of social control.
“Our goal in doing this research is to keep public attention focused on just how damaging internet shutdowns truly are. This damage is both direct, in terms of the economic and human cost, and indirect, in that it forces people to use unsafe VPNs to try to circumvent the restrictions imposed upon them,” Top10vpn stated in the report.
It, however, noted that governments disrupting their own citizens’ internet access is not the only cause of internet shutdowns as other factors could also lead to shutdowns.

If we ever want to find something out, the vast majority of us will head over to Google to find the answer.
Whether that be to find a solution to a burning question, or finding the definition of a complicated word, the popular search engine is always there.
However, there are some words you should avoid Googling at all costs, according to a Reddit thread.

Google is the most visited website in the world, with more than 106 billion visits in June 2023 alone.

However, with Google search comes Google images, and there are some things that are better left unseen.

Sometimes life doesn't always come with a trigger warning, so consider this your friendly reminder to the billions who use the search engine every day, these words really aren't worth a Google search.

The words were compiled in a report by It's Gone Viral, published earlier this year, and some of them are certainly stomach churning.

Unsurprisingly, a lot of them are health related, as who doesn't immediately go to Google whenever they're feeling a little under the weather.
That being said, it is important to remember that if you have any concerns about your health to consult a medical professional, instead of looking for answers on the likes of Google.

This word : Larvae, Degloving, krodozil, Fournier, Harlequin ichthyosis

How to find your Android device?
Almost all Android devices come built with Google. In case you need to find your smartphone, Google has a great feature that can help you locate it. It comes in an app and website version called ‘Find My Device’. With the help of this, you can remotely locate your missing Android smartphone, secure it, and even erase the data. Here’s how you can use it:

If you’re logged into your Google account and open the Find My Device page/app, you will see a map with all the other registered devices.

But, remember that to use Find My Device, your lost device should be powered on and linked to your Google device. In addition to this, your device’s location and Find My Device option should also be on.

Follow these steps:

Step 1: Open the Find My Device web page. On the top left corner, you will see your registered device and its last known location on the map.
Step 2: Here you have two options: “Locate the device” and “Play a sound.”

You can zoom in on the map and try to get the exact location of your smartphone if it is still on. If the smartphone has been turned off, you will see its last active location. If you see that the smartphone is closer to you, you can blast a sound on the device. It will play the sound even if the smartphone is on mute or vibration.

Step 3: If you think that your smartphone is not anywhere near you, then you must secure it. For this just click on “Secure Device”. Your screen will be locked and you can even add a message to display on your lock screen. You can only do this if your internet is still on.
Step 4: If you think you will not get your smartphone back, then you can remotely factory reset it. You will lose all your data and will not be able to locate it either.
