« Des journalistes citoyens syriens risquent leur vie, la ville de Homs confrontée à la famine » : différence entre les versions

As crucial as some of the live footage may be at getting pictures of the bloodshed inside Syria out of the country, for now, much of it hosted on Bambuser has stopped coming out of many cities. On February 17, the Syrian government blocked access to the Bambuser website and its mobile phone application. Despite the government's actions, some small instances of live footage has made its way out of Syria in the past few days, mostly from mobile phones. <!-- http://bambuser.com/broadcasts and click the 'Middle East' tab for archived footage of most recent live feeds from Syria etc.--> Bambuser speculates the government's action may have been a result of Omar's live footage of the oil pipeline explosion on February 15, being broadcast live on the internet. That footage was the rebroadcast live on several major news networks including CNN, {{w|BBC News}}, {{w|Al Jazeera}} and {{w|Sky News}}. "We believe this footage was the trigger for the Syrian government to block access to bambuser.com and disable the possibility to broadcast live video with mobile phones on Syrian 3G," said Bambuser in a statement on their website. Bambuser has been blocked before in other countries. It's access was blocked in {{w|Egypt}} in January 2011 during their revolution. It was blocked in {{w|Bahrain}} six months ago and remains blocked to this day. "Not only have we helped them get their message out, but they also say it means much in terms of morale for everyone in this situation. They [The Syrian people] know the world is watching, sharing and it gives them hope. No matter where in the world there is unrest, we at Bambuser always do our best to support and help observers," added Bambuser. <!-- Bambuser Feb. 17 http://blog.bambuser.com/2012/02/live-video-streaming-service-bambuser.html -->
