Says Time:

Sociologists call the movement “e-Palestine”: a feeling of nationhood cultivated online by young members of the fractured diaspora, some living in the confines of the occupied territories; others born and raised in exile and connected to Palestine at a remove of several generations. With the internet domain suffix “.ps,” this young online community has acquired a kind of international recognition that the physical Palestine can only aspire to.

The web’s just a tool. How the Palestinians use it, for better or for worse, is up to them.
