[HIGHLIGHTS] To preserve the traditional culture. Indigenous community in Indonesia calls for internet shutdowns in its region

Indonesia's indigenous group wants to cut off internet access to its members. The group is divided into two: one that embraces new technologies and the other that rejects them.

The community is concerned about the health of its members who may use the internet too much. The government has agreed to cut the internet access for the group's members, but not for the rest of the community, a letter says. The letter was sent to the president of Indonesia, Joko Widodo, who is expected to respond.
