Iran: nowadays

Iran strenghtens the censorship on internet. In the last week the Iranian government formed a high council dedicated to cleansing the country's Internet of sites that threaten morality and national security.
In this council are heads of intelligence, militia, security and the powerful Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, as well as media chiefs.
Charged with supervising all cyberactivity, the council also has the power to make laws. The body will have its own budget and offices.
