Nightly internet curfew era, 2021

DRAFT — needs an editor rewrite. Date_start (Feb 11, 2021) is derived from The Guardian's April 2, 2021 "almost 50 days" framing, not a direct first-hand date — flag this as an inferred-from-reporting date, not a primary-source-confirmed one. Reporters Without Borders' March 25, 2021 piece separately describes "fixed-line Internet disconnected every night, mobile Internet blocked for the past 11 days" — the RSF ~11-day mobile figure (implying a start around Mar 14) is close to but not identical to the Guardian's implied Mar 15 mobile-cut date; both are kept here as independent corroborating estimates rather than reconciled to one precise date, since neither source states an exact date directly. STATUS CAVEAT: same as 2021-02-nationwide-connectivity-cut — no source in this archive confirms when the nightly curfew pattern ended; "ongoing" reflects that gap, not a literal 2026 claim. No BGP/IODA layer: unavailable for this period (see that event's note).

Resolution note: Maintainer research (internal research notes, 2026-07): no source states a discrete "curfew lifted" date. Wikipedia's "Internet in Myanmar" timeline and contemporaneous reporting (OONI, Asia Centre, Reuters) describe the 1am-9am curfew as in place through early/mid-March 2021, then effectively superseded by a stricter nationwide mobile-internet shutdown beginning Mar 15, 2021. date_end here uses Mar 15, 2021 as the most defensible proxy for when the curfew phase ended AS A DISTINCT PATTERN — flagged end_date_confidence: estimated since it marks supersession by a harsher measure, not a "curfew lifted" event. This independently corroborates this event's own narrative, which had already derived ~Mar 15 from RSF's 11-day mobile-cut figure before this research round.
