...it has?

I thought countries like China, Iran, India, and Pakistan ban access to social media and the greater internet because of the threat it still poses to information being shared and utilized by common citizens.

I'm fairly certain the flow information still has a net positive despite attempts to crackdown and control online interaction both from corporations and governments.

Pakistan's PTI is still alive despite being stabbed by the military because they can effectively reach their voterbase via the internet. I don't think anyone has actually taken a picture or video of Imran Khan ever since he was thrown in jail, yet he is as popular as ever.

Anonymity.

When you can set up thousands of bots and say whatever you want without consequence of course this would be the result.
