Facebook, Twitter and BlackBerry hold talks with MPs after riots

From Sky News: It appears the UK government will not seek solutions to limit the use of social networks during times like the recent riots. Perhaps a good call for the UK regime to make because they saw how well social media is being used during the Arab Spring by protesters in repressive countries like Egypt, Syria and Bahrain. Western countries discussed these limitations happening in other nations when they're limiting people access to the Internet there at home. Hopefully Facebook, Twitter and others did not give in to the UK demands to limit communications, because this could possibly make one nation a police state.
