The 2G spectrum scam and a couple of questions for all the experts..

Can someone explain to me in simple language the intricacies of 2g scam in India.. I have read the news but I would like know answers to these questions in simple language?

1. What exactly is 2G spectrum?

2. If such biggies including senior journalists Like a certain Ms. Dutt and A Mr. Sanghvi were involved in lobbying and twisting the truth, who actually brought it to public limelight?(I have read that the first person to write openly criticizing the way spectrum deal was being handled was Paranjoy Guha Thakurta) but Is it the media that then took it forward?

3. It is obvious that central government would have known about what's going on all through, if it is indeed the biggest money scam in India, In such a case why our Supreme court cannot take action against the government or the Prime Minister himself? I know the answer to this question, not the technical answer though..

4. The service providers who were found guilty, what happened or what is going to happen to them?

5. where did all the money go eventually?

6. How does it directly affect common man of India?

7. what is the status now? (I have read about all the arrests)
