It also blocked Facebook Twitter and other sites as these platforms are used by activist to coordinate demonstrations locations and inform the world about what is happing in Egypt amid the growing protests, however these tactics did not work as around 2 million egyptian demonstrated yesterday in Tahreer square in cairo asking for the resignation of Egypt’s president Husni Mubarak.
