Iran’s Crappy Internet // April 2016

In the 6th instalment of our series on responses to Iran’s slow and heavily filtered internet, we check in again to see if things have improved [spoiler alert: they haven’t].

On the plus side, at least Iranian internet users have a sense of humour about it. Here are some of our favourite reactions.

Dislike

One of the reasons people don’t vote for conservatives is their insistence on filtering social media

Mental torture

Using the internet in Iran is mental torture; low speed, filtering, and frequent disconnection.

We’ve suffered enough

Someone should tell the foreign websites that people from Iran are already using proxies. Don’t increase your security check every now and then, we suffer already — stop it.
