Tweeting Lolita in Tehran
Kasia June 25th, 2009
(from Mark Shea via Orthometer)
If you use Twitter, set your location to Tehran & your time zone to GMT +3.30. Iranian security forces are hunting for bloggers using location/timezone searches. The more people at this location, the more of a logjam it creates for forces trying to shut down Iranians’ access to the internet. Cut & paste & pass it on.
I can’t be sure that this is true or that it’ll help, but it was hardly an inconvenience to spend a minute or so changing my Twitter location. If it doesn’t help, it’s no skin off me..
