Despite 662 Facebook users agreeing to attend a protest about the Government's Skynet anti-piracy laws, only three people showed up at Garden Place on Saturday.

One of the organisers "Gabriel Popovici", was forced to acknowledge that even he had forgotten about the event.

He said he hoped 1000 people would attend, apologised via the social networking site and said he had overlooked the fact he had other commitments.

The protest has been reorganised for October 31.
