I wonder if people here realize what the real importance of international events are. You're right, those who are pushing Obama to authorize an "Internet Kill Switch" are worried about exactly the kind of thing we're watching in Egypt.

Considering that the main purpose of the Internet is to facilitate the free exchange of ideas, it's not hard to see why governments want to control as much of the Web as possibe--including democracies like our own.
