I'm surprised this wasn't posted before, normally it warns me if it has been. I don't see it on the front page either. Sorry if this was a dupe.
wolvoleo•2w ago
Soooo... They're basically doing a North Korea.

This will not help their society in any way I'm sure. But I do think it will make it more and more likely they will get overthrown.

haebom•2w ago
They seem completely unaware of what has become of North Korea. It is an act of freezing time itself, a path beyond self-destruction into degeneration. The situation in Iran is no longer simply a matter of democratization or religion; it has become a question of common sense VS. senselessness.
ukblewis•2w ago
Of course they are aware: the regime does not care
beardyw•2w ago
It would be interesting to know what the effect (other than a lot of angry billionaires) would be to domestic users if the USA closed it's internet off.
wolvoleo•2w ago
Not so much I think because the center of gravity of the internet is definitely in the US. Look at the us-east-1 issue recently that caused global outages.

I think it would make the US more of a bubble than it already is though.

metalman•2w ago
acording to some researchers quoted in the article, Iran began building out a domestic internet 10+years ago, and are likely figuring out how to encrypt certain segments, and filter the rest of the www, very selectivly, China, not NK, they want education, trade, and finance, and who can blame them if they have decided to block, what everyone here knows is a slop driven hell of competing agendas, the big 404 to that, and perhaps they can then put the mullahs back in to a strictly religious position, and get a constitution that provides for some strict checks and balances on power, and as the US isn't useing there constition I bet they would be happy to get rid of it and have someone else take it off there hands.

Haha fat chance. Sure I'll give up my power said no leader ever.
