Following its brief June conflict with Israel, Iran has intensified its internet restrictions, throttling traffic and disrupting GPS signals. These measures have significantly impacted daily life in Tehran, where citizens now face challenges in performing routine online tasks. Residents report that even basic activities, such as ordering a taxi, have become time-consuming and unreliable.
The internet clampdown has raised concerns about increased government surveillance and the potential for further restrictions on digital communication. Experts warn that these actions could have long-term implications for both civic engagement and international connectivity. As Iran continues to navigate the aftermath of the conflict, the impact on its citizens’ access to information and global communication remains a critical issue.
