Irã considera cobrar taxas sobre cabos submarinos de internet no Estreito de Ormuz

O Irã avalia uma proposta para cobrar taxas sobre cabos submarinos de internet que passam pelo Estreito de Ormuz. O plano também pode restringir os reparos dos cabos a empresas iranianas.

A medida tem como alvo elos vitais que transportam o tráfego global de dados, incluindo serviços como conversas no WhatsApp, Reels do Instagram, entregas da Amazon e streamings da Netflix. As autoridades estão discutindo as taxas em meio às tensões contínuas com os Estados Unidos e Israel, onde um frágil cessar-fogo está em vigor atualmente.
