In at least some sense it is a response to Monroe Price’s earlier post, “Clinton’s ‘Long Game’ Advancing Internet Freedom,” as well as Ethan Zuckerman’s reaction to Clinton’s 2011 Internet Freedom speech.
HuffPo made it a “Featured Post!” Woo!
But there are no comments. Boo! I think we used too many big words.
This photo is from Richard Engel of NBC. Translation is supposedly “thank you / facebook / youth of Egypt.”
