Iran’s ‘tiered internet’ stirs anger as public is blocked, elites get access

Frustration over internet use is growing among people in Iran. The concern centers on what critics describe as a “tiered internet” system, in which Iranian authorities block ordinary users from accessing the global internet while allowing some privileged groups to connect. According to the original report, this structure is being seen as one that forces the public into a restricted online environment while giving certain groups relatively freer access. The issue may further intensify debate over fairness in internet access. Source: mk.co.kr
