Intranet facts for kids
An intranet is a private network website that only a few selected computers can have access to. Usually, they are being used as internal company websites for employees to know more about what is happening in the company without letting other people see.
An intranet works the same way as a normal website. The system administrator can add webpages to it and it can be accessed normally from a web browser.

It means people will not have access to dialogue about what is going on in their own country, they will be kept within their own bubble".
