Politics 🤡 Donald Trump



Cost and unreliability, plus total block means the network is down in its entirety plus as Rick said it is dangerous.
VPNs are relatively cheap and reliable and there is a plethora of choices these days. It isn't dangerous at all as long as you aren't blatant about it.

China would be similar and anecdotally it is fine.

But yes fair, no network at all would mean anything like that would be impossible.

Some Starlink equipment has been smuggled in to Iran but way more obvious and dangerous.

Ah you didn't read the article, the cost of a Gig of data in Iran currently is around the thirty $ US....the average wage is $100 a month.

Also Iran is like Nazi Germany, millions of fanatics support the regime, loose lips sink ships.
 
Tell me how you can get caught using a VPN Rick... unless they are physically looking over your shoulder, pretty impossible.
I'll use the analogy of the Maquis in WW2. Everyone is on the same side until you aren't and there's a knock on the door.
You don't need the IRGC looking over your shoulder. Your neighbour or the guy at the end of the street will do that for you.
The IRGC operate like Commissars in the old Soviet system. Every neighbourhood and every village has one, sometimes more.
It's how the population is contained.
Like Dave, I have Persian friends from the old days still in country. We have some contact but very limited and very dangerous.
