<p>On   January 11, 2011 we made a post titled ‘In Defense of Uruknet’. This  blog post  was made in the hope of getting enough people to sign onto  Uruknets group page  on Facebook to apply pressure to reinstate  Uruknet’s profile page, which had  been deactivated/revoked by Facebook  without notice that  day.</p>
<p>Today  we  are happy to tell you that Facebook has reinstated Uruknet’s profile  page and  has also apologized for the incident!  This happened <span style="text-decoration:underline;">only</span> because of the  many, many of you that retweeted our blogpost, that  went to Uruknet’s group page  and ‘liked’ it, and because of the <span style="text-decoration:underline;">many</span>, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">many</span>, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">many</span> blogs  and daily e-papers that took our story and reposted it! THANK YOU ALL SO VERY  MUCH! THIS WAS A HUGE SUCCESS!</p>
