According to the Sunday Times, British authorities conducted constant monitoring of the social networks and phone messages, sent via chat BlackBerry. As the newspaper notes, in this paper were involved experts from the interception of e-Government Communication Office. Notably, however, that the social networks to coordinate their actions as rioters, and those people in London, which staged the night duty in their areas to protect them from looters, and then cleared the streets of the capital from the debris. Experts agree that the rapid development of the conflict and the spread of protest among certain social strata of British society, not least due to popular social networking is. In particular, the influential British MP David Lammy, even a Canadian company called Research in Motion (maker BlackBerry – approx. VIEW) to temporarily block the collective chat as encryption of messages sent through these phones, complicating access to information the British security services. But his words were ignored. Faced with a new phenomenon, the British authorities have started to develop a response that, in the case of a repetition of events in London, would not allow thugs to use modern technology for illegal purposes. Discussed options such as turning off entire regions, mobile telephony, blocking a number of sites, and publication in social networks misinformation messages to control the actions of the rioters. In general, by Sunday the British police arrested more than two thousand suspected of involvement in massacres. Only in London through the courts was 700 people, charged with disorderly conduct, violence, looting and damaging others' property during the riots. A British court has to work in an expeditious manner. The hearings continue around the clock. It is expected that in the coming days will be carried out further arrests. According to British Prime Minister David Cameron, the British authorities in the near future are going to toughen penalties for street crime and run a program developed in the U.S. "zero tolerance" to the participants of street riots and looters. "I'll talk more about the necessity of these measures, because there is such a need. We are not loudly expressed our "zero tolerance", but it is the idea that we want to convey, "- said the British prime minister in an interview Sunday Telegraph. In the meantime, looters are actively selling the stolen goods during a riot over the Internet. In particular, kidnapped things you can buy the popular online auction site eBay. Stolen goods is different in that they are sold at an unusually low prices. For example, an unopened Tablet PC from Apple iPad can be purchased for 280 pounds or half the retail price. Half price on display as plasma TVs, and various smart phones and more, according to ITAR-TASS. Identify offenders who are willing to cash in on stolen, helping ordinary Internet users. They inform law enforcement about suspicious lots. As reported by BBC, has already made the first arrests. Police also set the names of rioters, to deprive them of social housing. For example, suspected of looting Denial Sarteyn Clark and his mother have already been notified. A young man accused of robbing it of household appliances shop in south London. Since the family lives in public housing for low-income families, according to the rules of the housing co-op for violating the law to tenants facing eviction. However, there have already appeared, and the opponents of such cruel punishment. First and foremost, it is relatives and friends of young people who participated in the riots. Experts say that one can not avoid a repeat of the arrests of protest actions. In this regard, the country's enhanced outdoor protection. Only the London streets patrolled by police 16 thousand to 6 thousand at the beginning of the protests. To curb the unrest on the streets of the UK prime minister, David Cameron invited to consult the former head of police departments in New York and Los Angeles, William Bratton which won the nickname "superkop" through the use of hard and effective methods. He will meet with Cameron in September. Recall Bratton famous zero-tolerance policy, which has helped reduce the level of street crime in his custody, the cities, especially in Los Angeles after the riots of 1992. As noted in the Western press, Bratton invitation due to the fact that after the riots Cameron has come under fire from ordinary Britons, the media and political opponents. According to a recent survey, more than half the country's inhabitants believe that the head of the cabinet is too late to react to the situation. Even more critical of the British police, who, in their opinion, were not ready for such a surge of violence, and simply "lost" the street rioters. Recall that in the clashes injured 111 police officers. However, the British government would not abandon the reform of the police, which are part of a continuing program of unprecedented spending cuts budget to reduce his record deficit. It is planned to reduce the financialansirovanie police at 2 billion pounds ($ 3.3 billion), which will reduce its size by about 30 thousand people. Recall, a hotbed of unrest, which began August 7, Great Britain, was north of London, where representatives of national minorities, immigrants and their descendants. Then the riots spread to other parts of the city, and after that – and in other cities in England, particularly Manchester, Birmingham, Leicester, Wolverhampton, Bristol, Gloucester and West Bromwich.

Crowds of young people smashed shop windows and penetrated into the stores, taking the most expensive – designer clothes, electrical engineering.
