    Yale professor, Navid Hassanpour argues that the Internet may actually hinder revolutions by creating mass-confusion while doing little to generate action. Global Voices writer and Tunisian revolutionary Slim Amamou questions this logic, arguing that without the Internet, the revolutions which took place during the Arab Spring may not have occurred at all.
