As massive street demonstrations are met with widespread violence in
Algeria, the country is reporting that many Facebook accounts have been
deleted or blocked by the government, in an effort to stifle protests
against President Abdelaziz Boutifleka, activists on Twitter reported around
midday in the country.
They also said that the government is working fast to cut off all Internet
providers in the country.
