In June of last year, 28-year-old Khaled Said was beaten to death by police in public for the crime of Internet use. His martyrdom inspired protests and Internet organizing that led to the victorious uprising. Google exec and activist Wael Ghonim set up the powerful Facebook page "We Are All Khaled Said."
Blogger Marwa Rakha, born and raised in Egypt, posted about a mass detention of bloggers, including Wael Abbas, who tried to cover the aftermath of a massacre of Egyptian Christians.
