Title: Internet has been shut down in Egypt
Post by: bloo-apple on February 01, 2011, 10:30:03 PM
What the [cen] Egypt. Now every country is going to want an internet kill switch.
But seriously, i can't imagine a whole country going without internet. So many jobs through the internet, so much information now blocked, and unable to even text... i find this crazy.
what do you think?

Well their government likes to control media outlets and forms of public opinion. So it seems natural for them to have issues with the free-speech that is available with the internet. The internet is a luxury after all, forms of communication have existed without it(as hard as it is to remember life without the internet).
With public protests come their government stepping in to regain control.
