Egypt Blocks BlackBerry Internet Services

Things are falling apart in Egypt. Reports on the Internet suggest that either officials, wireless services providers, or both have blocked BlackBerry Internet Services [BIS] in the country. Just yesterday and the day before, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and even Google were blocked. Luckily, Egyptians reportedly regained access to Google, YouTube, and Facebook. However, Twitter and BIS are still blocked.

Unfortunately, details are still pretty scarce.

All of the aforementioned services have been blocked in light of the recent public manifestations in Egypt to protest government and police corruption.
