ENGLISH LANGUAGE
Directions (1-10): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions

r’s
given below it. Certain words are given in bold to help you locate them while
answering some of the questions.
In an era increasingly reliant on digital infrastructure, the issue of digital
sovereignty has emerged as a geopolitical flashpoint. Countries are no longer
content to rely on global tech giants headquartered abroad. From the European
ha
Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) to China’s Great Firewall,
states are asserting greater control over data, content, and infrastructure within
their borders.

E
This fragmentation of the internet—a phenomenon scholars call the
“splinternet”—is driven by differing national priorities: privacy in Europe, security
d
in China, and innovation in the U.S. While advocates claim digital sovereignty
ensures national security and preserves cultural values, critics argue it hinders
ee

global interoperability, innovation, and the open nature of the web.

Tech companies find themselves caught in the crossfire. They must navigate
conflicting legal regimes, comply with local content mandates, and face increasing
C
demands to localize data. This raises questions about who ultimately governs the
internet: multinational corporations, national governments, or international bodies.
Sr

Meanwhile, cyberattacks and misinformation campaigns have made

governments wary of relying on cross-border digital systems. In response, calls
for digital autonomy have intensified, pushing countries to build homegrown
alternatives. The challenge lies in achieving balance—between national control
and global collaboration.
