"“Splinternet” refers to the way the internet is being splintered – broken up,
divided, separated, locked down, boxed up, or otherwise segmented.
Whether for nation states or corporations, there’s money and control to be had
by influencing what information people can access and share, as well as the
costs that are paid for this access.
The idea of a splinternet isn’t new, nor is the problem. But recent
developments are likely to enhance segmentation, and have brought it back into
new light."
