It's tempting to believe that this sort of thing could only happen under dictatorships, but if something similar to what happened in Egypt or Libya were to happen in any of the "democratic" countries you can be quite confident that they would also head even more expeditiously for the off switch. They might or might not succeed in shutting things down, depending upon the architecture of the network, but you can be sure they'd make a determined effort. _______________________________________________ Freedombox-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss
