The Board stated that the decision to target Facebook, twitter, and blackberry messaging as a source for rioting was the wrong decision, because people will always find a way to organize and share opinion. Rather than targeting the media, the board stated, the government should have arrested the mob in previous protests, in order to send a zero tolerance message and to warn future protestors.
