Net censorship in Iran
For the first time officials have announced that they are studying to buy or produce a filtering softaware to filter porn and political websites. There is a technical debate going on between them and ISP association on how should they do it.

I can hear the conversation down at Government Central, "you search for political sites to add to the filter while I search for porn." "No, I'll do the porn, you look for the poltical stuff" Maybee they won't get around to looking for political stuff for quite awhile. ,;-)

This thing is really cool! You can track a website by latitude & longitude and may arrest the owner! The tool the Iranian Govt. is looking for to track down the numerous dissidents who acts through website! I hope they are not listening. :))

ISP filtering eh?? I think that will stop me for about... oh... two seconds, until I set up an ssh tunnel through a US shell server...
