I really hope that's what it will end up being.

But I fear that the actual end result will be an Egypt ruled by one of the Muslim extremist groups that operate there and which are far more organized and poised to take advantage of a power vacuum.

Kind of like iran. Is it being posed as a religious revolution led by the islamic faction?

On the other hand, it may temporarily solve the ipv4 address exhaustion issue

Temporarily, IPv4 exhaustion is not a problem anyway. It is a long-term problem.

It's less clear than you think. It didn't work in Iran and it might not work here. The arrogance in social media will have to be reconciled with failed revolutions.

Or by the western governments who back them.
