⚠️ Update: Metrics show #Iran has been offline for 12 hours after the regime imposed a nationwide internet blackout amid US and Israeli military strikes.

While most countries work to stay connected in times of international conflict, Iran has again silenced its own population.

Why do you assume that #Iran is responsible for turning off the #internet connections, especially since they are being attacked by other nations? Would those attacking not rather enjoy an advantage with a fog of #war?

@Earl @netblocks it's not only internet is blocked, also satellite tv is jammed since last night to prevent #iranintl and #manoto to be received. Of course those attacking would want iranians to have access to farsi language stations from abroad opposing the mullah regime.

@netblocks aljazeera block out in the united states so we don't see that we knowingly bombed a school 60+ kids killed.

"Iran is once again blocking internet access btw." Clown

@netblocks Given that the Internet is mostly a pipeline of US propaganda, turning it off when the US is attacking is not unreasonable.

@netblocks if the islamic regime had any slightest bit of legitimacy they wouldn't have to commit mass repressions and shut down the internet countrywide
