Iran plans to launch "Internet for the faithful"

Recently it became known that the Iranian government plans to introduce a separate sector of the Network, created for the faithful Muslims. The idea is to create a fully enclosed sector of the network from outside influence, where there would be nothing that could adversely affect the consciousness of an Iranian who is loyal to his country and is a true Muslim. The project, according to the initiators of the project, "is aimed at Muslims at the ethical and moral levels."

This entire web sector will be based on the principles of Islam, and it will be possible to work both commercial and non-commercial services and individual resources that comply with the principles of Islam. In addition, it is planned that most of the resources within this segment will be in Farsi, which, according to the government, will increase the presence of Farsi in Iran, which will make this language the most important means of international communication.

How successful the project will depend, of course, on the Iranian population - if this “fenced” segment of the Internet is accepted positively, then further development of the project is possible. According to the leadership of this project, which involves the highest echelons of the country's authorities, the developers use the experience of China with its “Green Dam”, which is also called the Great China Firewall, as an example.

Interestingly, the country will also support the work of the regular Internet, which everyone can access. But, of course, the “shared Internet” can be covered at any time. For example, some time after the introduction of the “Iranian Internet”, we can expect reports on the success of this innovation, after which access to the Global Network will simply be closed. In general, the project of the Iranian government not only repeats the experience of the Chinese comrades, but even surpasses it.
