A Minor Security Lesson from Mumbai Terrorist Bombings
http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2006/07/a_minor_securit.html
Two quotes:
Authorities had also severely limited the cellular network for fear it
could be used to trigger more attacks.
And:
Some of the injured were seen frantically dialing their cell phones. The
mobile phone network collapsed adding to the sense of panic.
(Note: The story was changed online, and the second quote was deleted.)
Cell phones are useful to terrorists, but they're more useful to the rest of
us.
