They should just do what the Russians did... fill the room with cyanide, wait till everyone is asleep, do the round-up (anyone with a gun gets a bullet to the head), anyone without one gets immediate medical attention...

public execution for those responsible seems a bit more fitting, IMO...

It's a rough estimate based on how many customers and staff their are at the time of the day.
Silly Sausage, we still don't know the exact number within the store, at this time it may be a possibility but not a probability.

@RMDomal @ArcticFox_am_I so you're saying that innocent Australian civilians held hostage by a jihadist is nothing?

@MattNYR12 @ArcticFox_am_I you know he's a jihadist? You want them to break into a football game to cover a story that has HOURS to go?

@RMDomal @ArcticFox_am_I BBC said so. And CNN/Fox News/MSNBC aren't covering football.

@MattNYR12 @ArcticFox_am_I you said MAJOR networks. Unthought you meant NETWORKS as opposed to cable nets.

Uber is reportedly charging users a minimum $100 to get out of Sydney CBD, Mashable is reporting. The price has been pushed up because of a surge in the demand. Uber has a deal in New York to cap their surge pricing duing emergencies but it does not seem the same agreement is in place in Australia.

No disruption to mobile services in the city

This is from Deputy Technology Editor Ben Grubb: Despite Channel Seven reports that mobile phone services have been shut down in the CBD at the request of police this is not the case. "There is no disruption to Optus' mobile network in the Sydney CBD. Customers' voice and data services are operational," an Optus spokeswoman said. Telstra and Vodafone spokespeople would not comment, although it's understood they have not shut down services either. The issues may be related to congestion from people posting photos to social media using the mobile networks and making calls at the same time. NSW Police is yet to comment on whether it is using any mobile phone jamming equipment, although use of such equipment is illegal unless approved by the communications regulator, the Australian Communications and Media Authority.

An executive in the city's Central Business District (CBD) sent Mashable screenshots of the Uber app that show the company is charging up to four-times the normal rate because "demand is off the charts."
