Die Menschen im Iran können seit 66 Tagen das Internet nicht mehr nutzen! Ein Zustand, eine Krise, die man bei den vielen neuen Krisen jeden Tag all zu schnell vergisst.
Das Internet im Iran ist seit 20 Jahren zensiert. Webseiten ausländischer Medien sind blockiert. Auch wird das Internet zeitweise komplett abgeschaltet, was zu humanitären Schäden führt. Aktuell ist der Shutdown etwas gelockert, aber der Traffic nur auf einem Niveau von 60% von vor dem Shutdown.

Iran's ongoing internet shutdown has been going for more than 66 days.
It's been 117+ days since the Jan 8 blackout first cut off broad internet access — meaning Iranians have had widespread connectivity for just ~6.4% of 2026.
