Abstract
This article examines the related but distinct roles of two kinds of technologies—the cell phone, on the one hand, and crowds, on the other,—in the articulation of popular politics surrounding People Power II. It asks about the contrasting ways by which these telecommunicative technologies alternately promoted and contained expectations for radical change, and reflects on the messianic understanding of justice and freedom in the contemporary Philippines.
