Twitter users arrested
Two people were arrested for scanning police radio frequencies during a protest in Pittsburgh who have organized against the maintenance of G20 summit in this city. The accused used Twitter to inform the protesters on the developments of the police. Elliot M. Madison and Michael Walschlaeger were arrested in a hotel room for which the police claimed that it was full of computers. The FBI, which arrested the above two and confiscated computers, said that among the equipment found several mobile phones to MP3 players and anarchist literature and pictures of Vladimir Lenin and Karl Marx. About 5,000 people protested during the holding of this Summit, of which 190 of them arrested.
