I can’t help but nod in agreement at these sentences. We all know that there are several websites that have dubious contents. What’s your advice on checking for the accuracy of websites?

“This event comes not only as a tremendous event of change for the Iranians, we all need to look around at our own situation. If there was need for revolution within our own country, could we tell the world our story? China has an Internet firewall like no other, Australia is enforcing country-wide censorship of its Internet users. Germany is now headed down a similar path while Canada, the US and Britain are simply content to monitor every phone call, text message, digital connection, etc… their own citizens initiate.”

The situation in Iran is not the only thing that should worry us. The censorship that many powerful countries imposed on their citizens is also a reason to get frantic. Although it is not obvious yet, the world is heading towards a society which is not different from those found in the books of George Orwell. It seems that Big Brother is re-entering the scene, albeit, very subtly. Iran maybe be the first one to take drastic censorship measures, but for sure, it would not be the last. Why do you think the first world countries are starting to impose censorship? It could be the first step to total control over the people.
