[quote=RAINDROP,437681]Many news reports have said that Twitter and Blackberry Messenger had a role to play in London Riots. According to the report, the death of Mark Duggan and subsequent protest were indeed organized on Facebook. Besides, some Blackberry users reported that they received some messages telling people to join the disorder. The local police noticed this and started to monitor Twitter and Facebook after the riot occurred. But it is harder to monitor Blackberry Messenger because the text messages are all encrypted when they are sent. But the Blackberry has promised to help the police to trace those who are responsible for stirring up the riot. The social media network has brought people closer and closer. People can have better communication with each other with the help of the social media like Facebook and Twitter. But some guys take advantage of it to do something illegal. It looks like a two edged sword. Is social media to blame for the London riots? What do you think of it? [/quote]
