YouTube, Wikipedia, IMDB.com, Amazon.com and curiously enough..the New York Times websites have been blocked by Iran's net nanny.
The clampdown was ordered by judiciary officials in the latest phase of a campaign in which high-speed broadband facilities have been banned in an attempt to impede "corruption" by foreign films and music.
The curbs are in line with a campaign by Iran's Islamist President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, to purge the country of Western influences
The article quoted above is a prime example of what hitler jr was referring to when he wrote in his letter "to promote and protect freedom and human dignity and integrity." . I can see why liberals love this guy, as they also would like to purge this country of western influences.
