We all accept that social media is viral and helpful in organizing people. Wasnt it a few months ago when citizens from a middle eastern country used twitter to rally people? It made headlines.
Dont be surprised when this type of behavior occurs in your country during a crisis of this type.

These people are protesting because they have no rights...the internet cutoff is proof enough of their claims as far as I am concerned.

His own army is now refusing to follow his orders and they refuse to take actions against ANY protesters. I guess they realize the situation, and they just hope the next tyrant wants a ready-made army to hire.

Anyone catch the speech he made when he was with the Chinese dictator? It was downright terrifying. The only thing that keeps Obama from shutting the internet down is the money that his corporate masters are making from the internet.
