Iranian Regime’s National Internet plans continue forward

Last March, it’s been said that the Iranian regime was testing out the National Internet system (or Intranet), before or during elections. The kind of Internet the regime will likely use to set up their servers and their own email and web search system. If this happens, the Iranians could be cut off from the rest of the rest of the world, and forced on the regime’s gatekeeper Internet. The Iranian regime would have to go through with it because it claims their own enemies are out there in cyberspace, national security and reputation concerns, un-lslamic/Western content, and more. Possibly in August, the Iranian people’s hope of getting online on the current Internet may be at an end. The government recently set up a council-level position just to oversee the Internet in their country. Denial or not, the current Internet as is, may make or break the Iranian regime, if they refuse to continue censoring content they dislike.
