From the NYTimes...

Internet cafes were closed down. Both MPT ISP and Myanmar Teleport ISP cut down internet access in Yangon and Mandalay since this morning. The Junta try to prevent more videos, photographs and information about their violent crackdown getting out.

Whats amazing about these Junta idiots in Burma...is that one guy sitting in the midst of some jungle village with a scooter and a satellite comm kit (less than $2500, to include the laptop), and I can blast video, pictures and text all day long to any place on earth....as long as someone is paying the satellite bill. The idea that you can halt communications by cutting off the telephone traffic is ridiculous in today’s time.
