"Keep your population stupid to better govern them", very hard to do now with the free flow of information over the Internet.

Interesting to see also Fox New and CNN loosing viewers in profit of Al Jazeera, or relying on Al Jazeera to get the news...

Like the New York Times, opening their own "wikileaks" service, so they can get the directly the type of information Wikileaks provided them.

Dominic,

impressive testimony.

While battles on the ground in Egypt seem to be raging overnight, there is 
also an intense discussion about the subject of Dr. Abdulla's email - the 
influence of the Internet in the events in Egypt and previously in Tunis.

We must remain tuned. The aftermath is likely to shape the future of the 
Internet in a large scale. Events going on right now are of a far more 
vast scale than was thought when "the Internet treats censorship as damage 
and routes around it" was written.
