Every internet provider in Iran has been linked to the rest of the world through a central hub inside the National Iranian telecommunications company, TCI. There, an ingenious system has been installed to keep track of all user's movements through cyberspace, recording the electronic communication and allowing to block any unwanted content.

Pwned!
