Egypt: Sandmonkey Quits Blogging · Global Voices
Amira Al Hussaini

Egyptian blogger Sandmonkey is hanging his boots and calling it quits.
“One of the chief reasons is the fact that there has been too much heat around me lately. I no longer believe that my anonymity is kept, especially with State Secuirty agents lurking around my street and asking questions about me since that day. I ignore that, the same way I ignored all the clicking noises that my phones started to exhibit all of a sudden, or  the law suit filed by Judge Mourad on my friends, and instead grew bolder and more reckless at a time where everybody else started being more cautious,” he notes.
