【禁闻】谷歌高管一语成谶 互联网改变政局

【新唐人2011年2月9日讯】谷歌中东及北非市场部主管威尔•戈宁( Wael Ghonim),在大示威之前多个月,一直在网上号召和串连示威,而成为埃及英雄。同时,他在一年前已经预示,互联网有改变政治面貌的威力,谁知一语成谶。不过,他在大示威开始的第四天,失踪了。一起看看怎么回事?

埃及政府之前将威尔•戈宁标签为“叛国贼”。戈宁失踪的当天有目击者拍到,估计是被便衣警察带走的片刻画面。不过,在反对派的压力下,戈宁在周一获得了释放。

在上个月27号,埃及大示威爆发第三天,戈宁在他的facebook网页给好友留言说“一年前我说,互联网会改变埃及的政治面貌,有些朋友还取笑我。”

这位科网才俊的话一语成谶。

香港《苹果日报》报导,去年6月,28岁埃及男子赛义德(Khaled Said)被怀疑遭到警员报复打死,埃及全国震怒。戈宁和朋友们利用facebook开设网页悼念赛义德,最终成为筹组多个城市的反警察暴力示威,以及批评埃及政府的平台。

在示威活动爆发前两日,戈宁还在facebook个人网页呼吁好友参与示威。示威当日,他又在Twitter上对追随者说:“即使亲友警告我,我仍会参加1月25号的示威。”

在示威初期,戈宁在Twitter的留言说“革命可以是一件很fb(facebook)的事,可以 liked、shared和 tweeted”。他还被这次示威的网上组织“4月6日青年运动”推举为发言人。

到示威第四天,他失踪前似乎预示到了危机,他说“为埃及祈祷。我们都准备了死亡。”之后埃及政府封锁了全国互联网服务,戈宁也突然失踪了

在这次埃及大示威中,身为Google高层的戈宁,利用着facebook、Twitter改变了埃及的政治面貌。

而在中国,Google、facebook、Twitter,都遭中共防火墙封锁。由美国动态网技术公司研制出的破网“五剑客”软体,可以让中国网民翻墙登录,看到海外的真实资讯,其中也包括了这三个网站。

动态网技术公司总裁比尔•夏:“对中国来说,最根本的是,大家能够看到真实的资讯,大家都会有自己的兴趣思考,凭自己的良知去判断。”

比尔表示,网友在动态网看到真实的信息,感到非常兴奋,现在已经形成了一个庞大的群体,幷且在中国境内起着传播的效应。

比尔•夏:“最近几天,新唐人电视台是在 网上播出全球华人新年晚会,有非常多的人都是要来观看。这是最近的很多人来用(动态网)的这样的一个事情。

戈宁利用facebook开设网页成为号召和串连示威的平台,而改变了埃及的政治面貌。而动态网以提供给大陆网民真实的信息,来击破中共的各种谎言。

Months before the protests in Egypt began, Wael Ghonim, head of Marketing at Google for Middle East & North Africa, had been calling for demonstrations on the Internet. This hero said one year ago that the Internet had the power to elicit political change. This made him a prophet. He became missing 4 days after the demonstration started.What happened? Let’s take a look.

The government labeled Wael Ghonim as “traitor”. Some witnesses videotaped him being taken away, probably by the Egyptian plainclothes. However, under the pressure from the oppositions, Ghonim was released on Feb. 08, 2011.

On Jan.27, the third day of the protests, Ghonim wrote on his Facebook, “When I said the Internet would change the politics in Egypt, some of my friends ridiculed me.”

Those words have made him a prophet.

According to Apple Daily in Hong Kong, in June 2010, the death of the 28-year-old Khaled Said, allegedly killed by revengeful police shocked Egypt.
Ghonim and his friends mourned Said on Facebook.Later, the webpage became a platform for criticizing the government and organizing anti-police brutality protests in several cities.

2 days before the protest, Ghonim called upon his friends to join the demonstrations on Facebook On the day of the protest, he said to followers on Twitter, “Even my families warned me, I would still join the demonstration on Jan 25.”

At the beginning of protest, Ghonim wrote on twitter, revolution can be very fb (Facebook.)It can be liked, shared and tweeted.He was named as spokesman for the online group April 6 Youth Movement that organized the protest.

On the 4th day of the protest, he sensed the danger,“Let’s pray for Egypt. We’re all prepared to die.” The government later cut off the Internet in Egypt,
and Ghonim went missing.

Ghonim, as an executive at Google, used Facebook and Twitter to change the political landscape of Egypt.

In China, however, Google, Facebook, and Twitter are all blocked by the regime’s firewall.The software developed by U.S. based DIT Inc. helps Chinese break through the firewall and access info from websites, including these 3.

Bill Xia, President of DIT, “As to China, the fundamental issue is to help people get the true information,so that they can make their own judgment.”

Xia said netizens are excited to see the info on DynaWeb. There are a large group of users now.They are spreading the information in China.

Xia:“recently, the New Tang Dynasty TV has been showing the Chinese New Year Special Program online. Many people swarmed to watch it. That increased the number of users for DynaWeb. ”

Ghonim used his Facebook page as a platform to call for protests and changed the politics in Egypt.DynaWeb helps Chinese people get true information
as a way to breaks the lies of the Communist Party.
