Syrian internet cut-off (Aside)

Syrian internet cut-off

"In some countries, international access to data and telecommunications services is heavily regulated. There may be only one or two companies who hold official licenses to carry voice and Internet traffic to and from the outside world, and they are required by law to mediate access for everyone else". 
Picture of world and country's risk of cut-off

As the world becomes more industrialized, there will be less and less fear about an internet cut-off or blackout. However, we do have a lot of developing countries where internet does not have as much as a foothold on their way of life. When they are dependent on the internet, as we are here in the United States, is when there will be no threat of a cut-off. However, I would like to know if there was a circumstance where a country cut-off internet for an extended amount of time, if other countries would be able to transmit it via satellites? If this is a possibility, then no countries would run the risk of being cut-off completely for long durations. This would change a lot in the heat of revolution if the internet, throughout Syria for example, could not be controlled by a government within its boundaries. 
The fact that so many countries are inept to an internet blackout means they will always have the resource available, and thus connected in a way that our culture depends on. When secure internet does eventually travel to countries of high-risk blackouts, that simply means the governments of those areas loose power over that resource. This could lead to reform of governments across the globe, aided by the internet as seen in the Middle East.
Overall, it is inevitable that the internet will eventually travel across the globe as our technology improves. However, this can be seen as a good feat as more areas of the world will be heard on this platform, and be able to voice their concerns. Every day we are becoming more reliant on the internet, and receive more information from it (or at least have more information at our disposal). When those countries are able to voice their concerns without a threat of a cut-off, the rest of the world will be (hopefully) able and willing to lend a helping hand.
