RE: Brazil Shut down X/ Twitter, like I care!

I mean personally I analyse the news a week after it's happened, I just find that's a much more balanced way of assessing what's going on, and it's very rare I need to know something NOW - if it was that urgent someone would damn well phone me, or the neighbours would knock, or I'd hear people screaming.

Totally with you on this. As far as governments in a democracy banning social media, not so sure... especially given what our brasilian hiveans already posted here. ;)
