Spanish term or phrase: la Revolución de las Cacerolas
SPAIN. From a text about power and control in cyberspace. I know that "una cacerolada" is a type of protest where people bang pots and bans to voice their discontent, but I don't know what the equivalent name of this event will be in English.

"Sin embargo, en la historia más reciente de nuestro mundo contemporáneo, existen acontecimientos donde Internet y las redes sociales han jugado un relevante protagonismo. Desde la Revolución de las Cacerolas en Islandia (2009), la revolución tunecina (2010) que dio paso a la Primavera Árabe hasta el Movimiento de las Indignadas (2011) en España y el de Occupy Wall Street (2011) en Nueva York y otras ciudades norteamericanas, las redes sociales han sido un factor decisivo a la hora de realizar llamamientos a la protesta, difundir información y convertirse en un foro de debate de ideas."
