Iranian authorities have blocked access to Yahoo News and Reuters.com expanding their usual restrictions on foreign sites. Reuters reports that their site has been blocked since Monday and while there has been no official acknowledgement of the restrictions, an unidentified Iranian official contacted by Reuters told them that the government was looking into the problem in order to remove it.
Iran’s Committee for Internet Filtering Instances, which runs under the supervision of Iran’s Prosecutor Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejei, determines which sites will be blocked.
Several sites including Radio Zamaneh, BBC, Radio Farda, Deutsche Welle, Voice of Amercia as well as Facebook, Twitter and Balatarin, are on the Committee’s long list of blocked sites and have been beyond reach of Iranians without use of proxies.
According to recent ISNA reports internet users have reported a sudden decrease in internet speeds across Tehran. “Google, Yahoo, Gmail, and Yahoo Mail have been hardly accessible in the past days,” ISNA reports.
Head of a major internet service provider told ILNA that “security checks on the internet” as the main cause of the increase in download times.
Despite recent statements from the Islamic Republic establishment trying to attribute the Egyptian uprising to their efforts in exporting the Islamic system in the region, the move to make further restrictions on internet access appears to endorse the view of the Iranian opposition that the Egyptian protests, which are also facing government restrictions on the internet, are in fact an extension of the anti-government Green Movement in Iran which took shape following the presidential elections of 2009 in protest to election fraud and government oppression of peaceful protests.
During the massive street demonstrations that followed the last Iranian presidential elections, internet speeds were heavily reduced which the opposition attributed to government efforts to stop opposition from rallying protesters.
The recent cyber interference has also been attributed by some opposition sites to possible demonstrations being organized for the anniversary of the 1979 Revolution in February.

خبرگزاری رویترز و یاهونیوز در ایران فیلتر شدند
سایت خبرگزاری رویترز و سایت یاهونیوز در ایران فیلتر شدهاند و دسترسی آزاد به آنها در این کشور ممکن نیست
یک مقام دولتی ایران که خبرگزاری رویترز با وی تماس گرفته، گفته است مقامات این مشکل را بررسی و برطرف میکنند. نام این مقام دولتی اعلام نشده است
به نوشته رویترز این سایتها از روز دوشنبه ١١ بهمن جاری فیلتر شدهاند
در ایران «کمیته تعیین مصادیق فیلترینگ» که ریاست آن برعهده غلامحسین محسنیاژهای، دادستان کل کشور است، درباره فیلتر کردن وبسایتها تصمیمگیری میکند
علاوه بر دادستان کل کشور، «وزیر یا نماینده وزارتخانههای آموزش و پرورش، ارتباطات و فناوری اطلاعات، دادگستری، اطلاعات، علوم، تحقیقات و فناوری، فرهنگ و ارشاد اسلامی، رئیس سازمان تبلیغات اسلامی، رئیس سازمان صدا و سیما و فرمانده نیروی انتظامی، یک نفر خبره در فناوری اطلاعات و ارتباطات به انتخاب کمیسیون صنایع و معادن مجلس و یک نفر نماینده مجلس به انتخاب کمیسیون حقوقی و قضایی» اعضای دیگر این کمیته ١٢ نفره هستند
کمیته تعیین مصادیق فیلترینگ، تاکنون تعداد زیادی از سایتهای خبری و شبکههای اجتماعی را در ایران فیلتر کرده است. سایتهای رادیو زمانه، بیبیسی، رادیو فردا، دویچه وله، صدای آمریکا و همچنین شبکههای اجتماعی فیسبوک، توئیتر و بالاترین از جمله سایتهایی هستند که برخی از آنها ماهها پیش و برخی دیگر سالها پیش در ایران فیلتر شدهاند
در همین حال خبرگزاری دانشجویان ایران (ایسنا)، چهارشنبه ۱۳ بهمن ۸۹ گزارش داد که گروهی از کاربران اینترنت در تهران از عصر روز گذشته (سهشنبه ١٢ بهمن) با کندی سرعت اینترنت و قطعی برخی سایتهای پرکاربرد مواجه شدند
به گزارش ایسنا، در چند روز گذشته استفاده از سایتهایی مثل گوگل، یاهو، جیمیل و یاهومیل ممکن نبوده و یا به سختی امکانپذیر است و به گفته کاربران پس از بالا آمدن سایت به دلیل کندی نمیتوان از آنها استفاده کرد
سلطانی، مدیرعامل یکی از شرکتهای اینترنتی هفته گذشته در گفتوگو با خبرگزاری کار ایران (ایلنا)، «نگاه امنیتی به اینترنت» را دلیل پایین بودن سرعت اینترنت در این کشور اعلام کرد
به گفته سلطانی سرعت اینترنت در ایران در حد دایلآپ است
سال گذشته در جریان اعتراضات پس از انتخابات بحثبرانگیز ریاستجمهوری نیز سرعت اینترنت در ایران کاهش پیدا کرد. برخی از مخالفان دولت ایران دلیل کاهش سرعت اینترنت را در روزهای گذشته، با فراخوان تجمعهای اعتراضی در روز پنجشنبه ١۴ بهمن در ارتباط میدانند
این فراخوان که در برخی سایتها منتشر شده از مردم ایران خواسته تا امروز در میادین شهرها تجمع اعتراضی علیه حکومت برپا کنند
ایران از جمله کشورهایی است که سازمان گزارشگران بدون مرز از آن به عنوان «دشمن اینترنت» یاد میکند
گزارشگران بدون مرز که انجمنی بینالمللی در دفاع از آزادی بیان و آزادی روزنامهنگاران است، میگوید ایران در صدر کشورهای «سرکوبگر آزادی بیان بر روی اینترنت» در خاورمیانه است
