Internet access has been an ongoing struggle between Iran’s hardliners, who retain key bases of power in the judicial, intelligence and security branches of government and wish to maintain strict censorship and control over all information, and the 42 million Iranians—some 55% of the population—who use the Internet. Internet speed is a critical weapon in this battle, as the authorities frequently slow the speed of the Internet as a means to render it effectively useless, thereby depriving the citizenry of the online access it needs for professional, educational, and commercial use.
由于伊朗政府的司法部门、情报和安全部门一直以来都掌握在政府的强硬路线派手中,所以伊朗的互联网接入一直举步维艰,强硬派希望对伊朗政府能对4200万伊朗网民(约占全伊朗人口55%)实施严格的互联网审查并能控制所有信息。在这场较量中,网速是至关重要的武器,伊朗政府为了减少互联网的用处,常常采取降低网速的手段,导致许多专业性、教育性和商用互联网应用无法使用。
During his presidential election campaign in 2013, the centrist Hassan Rouhani responded to demands of his supporters for higher speed Internet access by saying: “We are in a situation where our researchers and students wish to use the Internet. Our people deserve better than to wait for information on the Internet.”
在 2013年伊朗总统大选中,中立派议员哈桑•鲁哈尼对他的支持者提出的提高网速的要求给出了这样的答复:“我们的研究人员和学生目前希望使用互联网。我们的人民不应该将时间花在等待网络信息上。”
