| Description | The article analyses the Myanmar internal conflict from cybersecurity prism combined with counterinsurgency (COIN) approaches. It assesses the role of cyberspace in the state´s COIN conduct and concludes that cyberspace has played a big role in the prolonged conflict, directly and indirectly inciting violence against minorities and as such the state´s COIN approach has failed. |
