In June, 2010, Khaled Said was
beaten to death
by police in public for the crime of Internet use and, apparently,
exposing police corruption. His martyrdom inspired protests and Internet
organizing that led to the uprising six months later that ended the
Mubarak dictatorship. Middle East-based Google exec and activist Wael Ghonim set up the
powerful Facebook page "
We Are All Khaled Said." That's one Google executive at least who didn't "do evil.")
