    Interesting! I didn’t know about these arrests. One of my best friends is Bahraini and he never mentioned it.

    • What makes your life different from others
    • Some event you've attended
    • To comment on local, national, or international news
    • What you like or don't like about where you live
    • What you're passionate about

  35. Cases:
    • The freeing of Tasneem Khalil in Bangladesh last week following the pressure of bloggers around the world at embassies, national newspapers, and via protests: more than 100 posts were written demanding his freedom in less than 24 hours while the major media hadn't written anything about it. One blogger, Jason Paz, commented:
    • It is of the utmost importance that we ordinary bloggers speak out against the injustice done to Tasneem Khalil.
    • Each of us may only have a small readership, but the effect can be worldwide and have an impact on Bangladeshi officials. Oppressors thrive picking off individuals in the darkness of the night. We want them to know the whole world is watching.
    • We want their kids to confront them over breakfast. “Daddy, did you do this?”
    Juliana Rincón MedalloBloguero 2007
  36. From a Blogger in Prison
    • You know something? Even though I can't see you, I feel that you can all hear us when we write. This fills us all with something strange that I can't define with words, but it makes us feel good. The truth is that you all calm us down a little. You make us forget some of the things that happen to us here inside [prison].
    • Thanks to all of you for reading us and supporting us in all of this. Thanks for giving us advice. I'll give a piece of advice to all of you who are passing by my situation: be strong! This is the end of the road and every day it is closer to when this penitence is over.

  37. In Egypt
    • Bloggers have put name and face to state security torturers and therefore the battle became personal. We demonstrated in the streets with posters of high rank security officials who supervised sexual harassment of female protesters in May 2005 and those who tortured micro-bus driver Emad el Kabir, and the ones who tortured blogger Sharqawi, and other notorious torture video heros. Their photos and videos were all over the web, their names became public.

  38. Nepal
    • Radio Free Nepal maintained a journal of what was happening in Nepal during the taking of power from King Gyanedra in February 2005, when the government decided to block all media transmissions, blocking not just the ISP's, but also stopping all telecommunication services. Eight days later, basic telecommunications were working again. Many people used email to ask about what had happened and the entries from this journal were made into an anonymous blog published remotely with outside support to tell what the government did not want to say.

  39. Bahrain
    • For example, when the three moderators of Bahrainonline.org were arrested in February of 2005, we wrote about it in our blogs so that the news would be disseminated both around the world and faster within Bahrain. Reporters without Borders had already written about it a day after the arrests. I think that all of the international attention focused on the case had to do with the case had to do with the decision by the government to free the three a couple of weeks afterward. But more importantly, our blogs have broken the monopoly of the government in communicating the news of Bahrain to the outside world.
