What happens when they close down the internet?

It's all well and good building this and that virtually, closing down our physical means of communication, and acting like everything is okay.

It's all well and good building this and that virtually, closing down our physical means of communication, and acting like everything is okay.

But what will you do when they just shut it all down. Because that's what they'll do if we become too threatening. We've seen it happen in Egypt and other potentially revolutionary situations. The state will just take down all mobile phone networks, and all mainstream ways of connecting to the internet as and when it suits them.

We can probably do the same thing, because it's much easier to take something down than keep it up and running.

The tricky thing is keeping it all running in our favour comrades...
