Seems like this is about to get very large. The mainstream media will not be able to ignore/suppress it for much longer. The interesting thing will be to see how far this runs. There was general condemnation when governments tried to shut down twitter / social networks during the Arab Spring - will the US Government do anything like that?
I don't think this will gain much traction in Australia - we are in a much better position, though potentially heading down a similar path.
