The internet is off. (In Egypt.)

Not really. Well, not here as of yet. (Although, it may occur sometime in the future if we dare challenge our rampant government.) However, this is beyond the point. Sometime in late January; the government of Egypt had decided to shut down all access to the internet.

What could possibly drive a government to make such a dire choice?

Nuclear fallout?

Plague?

The end of the world?

None of the above. The government simply didn't want the people to communicate in an effective manner as they wage war against a corrupt government that offers no more than two dollar an hour jobs. (If you can find a job to begin with.)

Ah, the glorious government of our nations. Don't you just love them?
