[Chapter-delegates] Sudan loses Internet

[Dr. Alejandro Pisanty Baruch]

Tarik,

this is good news indeed.

The underlying is less happy of course - the fact that the "kill switch" is suspected still needs investigation, to confirm or refute, and if confirmed, a waaaaay different course of action will have to emerge to make it unacceptable.

Less easy than ever in these times.

Alejandro Pisanty

Internet intelligence corporation Renesys confirmed reports Wednesday that Sudan has been cut off from the Internet. Al Arabiya reported earlier Wednesday morning that Internet access was cut and schools were closed through Sept. 30, as capital city Khartoum erupted in riots over the lifting of government fuel subsidies.
