As I said: "Main protests on Thursday" so no, Sudanese ppl don't protest once a week & btw People get shot here just for standing out and peacfully protesting so its far a way from the picture you have in mind. I've put a hashtag where you can see photos/videos & learn more and ofcourse share productivity tips
I am not a big fan of social media too but you will be suprised ... For example here in Sudan (East Africa) the country has been under continuous protests for over 2 months now (53 dead, 4k+ detained, 500+ injured) with strong censorship from the regime & silents from the internatinal community. So facebook, whatsapp & twitter are the only media left for the people to fight for freedom —> every Thursday is the main protests in the week and this Wedensday night the outage might affect this as thousands around Sudan won't know about the meeting points of tomorrow!!!
Actually the government did block all social media for over a month but that was fixable with vpn. (Follow hashtag #SudanUprising on twitter to learn more)
