در گفت‌وگو با صدای آمریکا درباره وضعیت اینترنت در ایران گفتم:
مشکل فقط فیلترینگ نیست، کل ساختار کنترل است.
تنها راه سریع و عملی برای داشتن اینترنت آزاد: رفتن جمهوری اسلامی. @NFPmedia #DigitalBlackOutIran‌

[Evan (AliReza) Firoozi @FirooziEvan]

Stealth signals, hidden in satellite TV broadcasts, are helping bypass Iran’s internet blackout, keeping information flowing when nearly all connectivity is cut.
I wrote about this emerging method and its implications for access and resilience:

Just spoke with @faznet about @TooshehApp, how we use satellite TV to bypass censorship and deliver uncensored information to millions in Iran, even during internet shutdowns.

Iranians have surpassed 600 hours of #DigitalBlackOutIran‌. While Starlink prices are prohibitively high in Iran, organizations like @NFPmedia are providing access for users on the ground.

📜NFP's @FirooziEvan joined a group of freedom advocates this week in sending a letter to the House Foreign Affairs Committee in support of legislation to increase Internet freedom and human rights for #Iran. We continue to stand behind the Iranian people's quest for freedom.

“When people are disconnected, hope alone cannot reconnect them. They need tools.”

Shokufeh Mahini of Hoover's Human Security Project spotlights digital "knapsacks", a technological innovation that slips communications past Iran’s rigid censorship to deliver hope and information to Iranians cut off from the internet.

The #DigitalBlackoutIran continues. More stories are emerging of what is taking place under the cover of darkness in #Iran:

[Iran International English @IranIntl_En]

As Iran went dark, eyewitnesses sent horrifying accounts of mass killings to the diaspora. Democracy and internet freedom activist Mehdi Yahyanejad explains what his sources inside Iran are reporting. You can watch Eye for Iran: https://t.co/DdjbKKkJxM

[NetFreedom Pioneers @NFPmedia]

"The restrictions ... remain largely in place, leaving satellite systems, one-way tools like @TooshehApp and trusted circumvention software as the primary lifelines for both Iranians and those trying to document events from abroad." @IranIntl @EmiliaCJames
