OWS crumbled in ways right out of various leaked three letter agency guides to disrupting grass roots movements.
I'd love to see it get another try, with how news sources have become far more decentralized. Less opportunity for major news orgs to kill the momentum.
Full disclosure, the destruction of OWS is pretty much the one thing I allow myself to go "full tinfoil hat" over.
