Interesting article about how bloggers in Iran are evading detection by the Ministry of Information and laws restricting freedom of expression:Â
Some journalists say the Internet has become even more vital in Iran as the government has suppressed other, more easily controllable forms of expression. Several opposition newspapers have been shut down since September, including the prominent paper Shargh. The editor, Mohamed Atrianfar, said in an interview that the closure of Shargh and other publications and renewed pressure on critical websites reflects the government’s concern that “the more challenges we have, the more agile and fresh the society becomes.”
Could thousands of subversive bloggers bring down a repressive government? Stay tuned.
