Egypt: A Nation Forced Offline (Jan. 25th, 2011). Egypt protests and their government literally shut off their internet access. They have no means of communication.

There are still videos on youtube though... even if they're offline, people can still see what`s been going on, and also thanks to news networks.

I haven't read the whole thread, but I would like to say one thing: just because one option is not working quickly/well/at all, does not mean that other options automatically will - ie, just because protesters in a country have not managed to change it from the inside doesn`t mean a foreign intervention would work better.
I`m just saying, there are situations with no good solution.
