In July 2009, after ethnically charged riots left hundreds dead in Xinjiang, China, a remote north-western region with a sizeable Muslim Uighur minority, the authorities put the province on electronic lockdown. More than 6m internet users were cut off from the rest of China and from the world, and long-distance calls and text messages on mobile phones were disabled. Xinjiang residents could not use these telecoms services for many months and were unable to use any of the outside internet, even most of the scrubbed Chinese version, until the following May, leaving a gap of more than ten months. By the party's criteria it seemed to work. The combination of online repression and ruthless security on the ground enabled the authorities to quell the riots and prevent further disorder. The party has often proved itself capable of making a determined effort when it comes to security.
