In India, I personally believe yes, there is a clear fear of unknown; there’s a lot of risk aversions in science and technology.

North Korea aside, most authoritarian governments have already accepted the growth of the Internet culture as inevitable; they have little choice but to find ways to shape it in accord with their own narratives – or risk having their narratives shaped by others.
