A scientist at the network security company Arbor Networks has used data from 80 Internet service providers around the world to create an image of the
Internet block in Egypt.
The graphic, which was compiled using anonymous traffic engineering
statistics, shows traffic to and from Egypt dropping sharply around 5:20 p.m. ET. As of about three hours ago, traffic has not picked back up.
Craig Labovitz, the creator of the graphic and chief scientist at
Arbor Networks, says that he found no evidence of Internet disruption in Syria, debunking a report from
Al Arabiya earlier Friday that
suggested all service in Syria had been cut off.
