Comment This has nothing to do with censorship (Score 2, Informative) 356

Oh my god! I *can not* believe how such stupid rumors get started and even published in the media!!! Yes the ICT ministry has asked ADSL internet service providers to stop giving high speed (higher than 128kbps) to their users. However, being the totalitarian regime that they are, this one had nothing to do with censorship! The ICT ministry announced that this is a *temporary* limitation which will be removed *within 4 months* and that it has to do with the gradual implementation of the new structure for ISP companies (which are going to be divided into several different categories based on their type of activity and the amount of bandwidth that they are allowed to provide). And forget this post, didn't any of you think how stupid it sounds to *censor* the internet by just reducing the speed to 128kbps which is actually quite a fast connection for a home user in this part of the world (because of high price of internet bandwidth). It just doesn't make sense. source: http://www.iribnews.ir/MainContent.aspx?news_num=6 5777
