A taxi driver’s political rant has gone viral in Egypt, prompting a debate about the state of the nation. Soon after it became popular, the video started disappearing online, leading to claims of censorship – and inspiring others to post similar videos of their own.

Also, in the wake of #RhodesMustFall, #FeesMustFall and #AfrikaansMustFall, a new hashtag is trending in South Africa - #ScienceMustFall. It is being used to ridicule one university student’s unusual demands for the ‘decolonisation’ of science. But does science really have a Eurocentric bias? Despite the online mockery, some believe the student was making an important point.
