And there was there does seem to be sort of a large discontent around that.

在這一點上，似乎確實存在著很大的不滿情緒。

But it does seem to be that this is larger than just the ban on social media.

但這似乎不僅僅是禁止使用社交媒體的問題。

We, you know, so videos on social media we've seen of protesters have been talking about, you know, alleged government corruption and just being sick of it.

我們在社交媒體上看到的抗議者影片一直在談論所謂的政府腐敗，以及對它的厭惡。

We've seen movements like this in the past over these last few years in Sri Lanka and in, you know, Bangladesh in this last year.

過去幾年中，我們在斯里蘭卡和孟加拉國看到過類似的運動。

And, you know, what seems to start off as something that, you know, may seem trivial does sort of escalate a snowball into a larger discontent with the government.

而且，一開始看似微不足道的事情，確實會像滾雪球一樣越滾越大，變成對政府更大的不滿。

What we did see was the government was saying, you know, we want to crack down on these apps because of hate speech and fake news proliferating on these apps.

我們確實看到政府在說，我們要打擊這些應用程式，因為仇恨言論和假新聞在這些應用程式上氾濫。

But, you know, people are seeing this young people especially are seeing this as, you know, an overreach of the government, you know, a sort of attack on their free speech.

但是，人們，尤其是年輕人認為這是政府的越權行為，是對他們言論自由的一種侵犯。

And what we also know is in these last few months, there have been videos that have been going viral of politicians, children enjoying lavish lifestyle, you know,

我們還知道，在過去的幾個月裡，政界人士、兒童享受奢華生活的影片在網上瘋傳，

which seems to have not gone down in a country where the per capita income is some fourteen hundred US dollars a year.

要知道，在這個人均年收入約為 1400 美元的國家，這些影片似乎並沒有減少。

So this is starting to emerge as a picture as to why people are so angry at this social media ban.

人們開始對這一社交媒體禁令感到憤怒。
