Autoridades iranianas ameaçam ações legais por uso de VPN

Autoridades iranianas estão enviando avisos por SMS a cidadãos que contornam restrições à internet. As mensagens visam aqueles que usam VPNs ou Starlink para acessar conteúdos da web global. Isso ocorre em meio a um apagão quase total de internet no país.

O Irã impôs um apagão de internet quase total, levando muitos cidadãos a usarem redes privadas virtuais (VPNs) e Starlink para recuperar o acesso à web global. Em resposta, as autoridades iranianas começaram a enviar avisos por SMS a indivíduos detectados contornando esses bloqueios. As notificações ameaçam explicitamente processos judiciais pelo uso de tais ferramentas. De acordo com relatos, as autoridades estão monitorando tentativas bem-sucedidas de burla e alertando os usuários diretamente por mensagens de texto. Essa escalada destaca os esforços contínuos para impor restrições à internet no Irã. As medidas refletem controles mais amplos sobre o acesso online, embora detalhes específicos sobre a duração ou os gatilhos do apagão permaneçam limitados nas informações disponíveis. Não foram detalhados mais comunicados oficiais das autoridades iranianas na cobertura.
