« Justice In Time | Main | Iran Gives: Here's Why » Internet in Syria
By Micah Halpern
Tuesday March 21, 2006 I've Been Thinking: There are an estimated 500,000 people in Syria in defiance of the government. The vast majority of Syrian internet users keep themselves so cloaked in secrecy that the government does not know who they are and cannot track what they are viewing. And what are they viewing? Many of them are viewing anti-government material. A strong and vibrant anti-Syrian movement exists within Syria. Participants risk life and limb, literally, or will be subject to long prison terms not just for writing critically of the government, but even for reading critique written by others. The numbers are significant. The internet might be the most powerful force for revolt in Damascus. 4 June 2017 12:14 PM in Thoughts
