Just want to point out this little tidbit. The rebellion: _"...was launched 10 days ago by students who have received backing from some of the country's fractured opposition groups"_ <http://www.aljazeera.com/news/americas/2014/02/police-fire-tear-gas-at-anti-maduro-protest-201421524551175247.html> AKA the oligarchy that was continually trying to assassinate or otherwise depose Hugo Chavez, undo what social gains he managed to accomplish. I don't consider the "Anons" whining about pastebin to be anything more than Useful Idiot trolls for the oligarchy and US government policy. I don't consider what's occuring in regard to blocking Pastebin or Twitter censorship but an attempt to derail a destabilization disinformation operation in the interest of a foreign power. A power that IS NOT a liberating force in Venezuelan society now, or at any point in modern history.
