    Iran Slows Internet Over Protests, Again

     
    Not surprisingly, the Iranian government has reportedly once again enacted stringent Internet controls in response to scheduled student demonstrations on Monday.

    Seeking to deny the protesters a chance to reassert their voice, authorities slowed Internet connections to a crawl in the capital, Tehran. For some periods on Sunday, Web access was completely shut down — a tactic that was also used before last month's demonstration.
