Weiss: Syria's Web Crackdown

Michael Weiss writes in The Daily Telegraph:

One of the ways Bashar al-Assad has tried to clamp down on the Syrian revolution is by restricting people’s access to the Internet.

Since March 15, when the first protests in Syria began, anti-regime activists have uploaded thousands of YouTube videos and blog posts and social network updates showing not only their force of number but the violence by which their calls for freedom have been met.
