Syria's Internet Silence Enters Day 2

Internet and mobile phone service has been cut off throughout war-ravaged Syria. The Syrian government blamed terrorists for the outage. Activists, on the other hand, have warned that Internet and phone blackouts commonly precede military operations in isolated areas. The networking firm Renesys reported that each of Syria's 84 IP address blocks was unreachable. Google seemed to corroborate that report with a chart on its Transparency Report showing a drastic plunge in Internet traffic in Syria on Nov. 29.
