Iranian authorities have lifted a ban on Meta’s (META.O) instant messaging platform WhatsApp and Google Play (GOOGL.O) as a first step to scale back internet restrictions, Iranian state media reported on Tuesday.

The Islamic Republic has some of the strictest controls on Internet access in the world, but its blocks on US-based social media such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube are routinely bypassed by tech-savvy Iranians using virtual private networks.

A positive majority vote has been reached to lift limitations on access to some popular foreign platforms such as WhatsApp and Google Play”, Iran’s official IRNA news agency said on Tuesday, referring to a meeting on the matter headed by President Masoud Pezeshkian.

Today the first step in removing internet limitations… has been taken,” IRNA cited Iran’s Minister of Information and Communications Technology Sattar Hashemi as saying.

Social media platforms were widely used in anti-government protests in Iran.

In September the United States called on Big Tech to help evade online censorship in countries that heavily sensor the internet, including Iran.

Re: Iran Lifts Ban On Whatsapp And Google Play by Bwanasaraw:
The new Iranian President is a liberal Muslim that doesn't really support Sharia justice system but their 85yrs old supreme commander Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is the major problem.

Ali Khamenei is a die hard extremist that is wasting Iran's commonwealth on weapons while it's citizens suffer inflation. His dream is to see monarchy Government in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Bahrain, Qatar removed claiming it's un-Islamic.

I hope the great Persians rise up against him one day.

The rest of the world don't care.
There's always suppression of dissent voices anywhere you see they practice extreme Islam.

Iranian people aren't interested. Iran govt can kiss the æss of all the women in Iran. Their govt has failed with aiding terrorism. Allah is vexing for Iran.
Re: Iran Lifts Ban On Whatsapp And Google Play by Edygrin(m): 9:39pm On Dec 25, 2024
Lol

I love how the rest of the world is ignoring all these sharia governed countries unlike before when the world tried to convince them how democracy and freedom is the best.

Now the world will just ignore you out of existence, if you like ban everything, nobody send ur papa again. You'll get tired and unban it yourself like Iran is currently doing.

If you like tell your women to dress like masquerades nobody send ur papa, your women will get tired and revolt themselves.

Everybody dey face their own country now

Re: Iran Lifts Ban On Whatsapp And Google Play by IronCondemned:
Iran would have been a greater country if not for its policy of state sponsorship of terrorism and elimination of Isreal as a country.
They have all the potentials to make Iran a prosperous country, yet it chose religious sect extremism over moderation and cooperation.
The day Iran will embrace peace with it's neighbours like Isreal, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Egypt, the region will grow in prosperity and moreover Palestinians would have their own homeland, whether as two state or a single one.
Iran is a major destabilising factor in the ME and would only change if the Shia Muslim sect leave power.
