   @astatide If only Gaza had VC investment. I’d be front-page news.

     This is especially disappointing (and I want to make clear that my disappointment lies on corporate, not on the journalists; even if a journalist has written it...) considering that Ars has defended publishing a lot of things under precisely that angle; that is, if it's newsworthy and involves technology, they typically report on it.

     You'd think an entire stateless population losing access to modern information networks would be noteworthy but hey.

     It’s very interesting that despite the total destruction of the internet infrastructure in Gaza and the use of a ton of technology by Israel, if you look at ArsTechnica you’d have no idea anything was even happening.

     Great fucking job, Condé Nast.
