Aghamiri: Internet Shutdown Is the Most Unpleasant Decision

This morning, Mohammadamin Aghamiri, Secretary of the Supreme Council and Head of the National Cyberspace Center, answered media questions and concerns about the country's cyberspace in a press gathering. The terms "Starlink" and "filter-breaker" were the most frequently mentioned words at the news conference.

This morning, Mohammad Amin Aghamiri, the secretary of the Supreme Council and the head of the National Cyberspace Center, answered questions and uncertainties about the country's virtual space in a meeting with the media. The words "Starlink" and "filter breaker" were the most repeated words heard in this press conference.

According to Ambassador Arjan's report, Aghamiri explained the country's policies in the field of Internet, filtering and dealing with Starlink, announced the investigation of network disorders, the review of filtering policies and the imminent release of a 32-point document to facilitate access to foreign platforms.

In response to Ambassador Arjan's reporter's question about what arrangements have been made to strengthen the infrastructure of domestic platforms as well as the local search engine to provide services in the event of a war and another internet outage, Aghamiri said: "I hope there will be no war and we will not need to change the network, but if there is a war, we will try to make minimal changes in the network in case of a crisis." About the native search engine, he said: "A few private collections have started working on the native search engine, and the initial results are promising, but it is still in the experimental stage and needs to be strengthened." Emphasizing that the infrastructure of messengers and internal social networks needs a serious leap, Aghamiri said: "While the economic conditions and the global increase in hardware prices have increased the cost of providing infrastructure, new economic mechanisms have been announced so that messengers can gradually provide their own independent infrastructure, and it is estimated that the majority of infrastructure problems will be solved in about a year with continued installation and development."

Referring to the use of Starlink in the fields of espionage and military by the enemy, the head of the National Center for Cyberspace said: According to Titbe, the country has several systems to disrupt Starlink satellite terminals and it is possible to counter this technology. Explaining this case, Aghamiri said: We cannot reveal the technology, but we will not shut down Starlink in the traditional way. But we are testing technologies that will more accurately identify Starlink dishes."

Internet disconnection; The most unpleasant decision possible

The Secretary of the Supreme Council of Cyberspace stated that the governance of cyberspace does not necessarily mean cutting off the Internet, saying: "In critical situations, restrictions may be applied to manage security threats. But completely cutting off the internet is the worst possible decision." Describing that, except for one case in January when the internet was completely cut off for a few hours, restrictions were used in other cases, he added: "Decisions about managing the internet in critical conditions are the responsibility of a set of responsible institutions, especially security institutions and the Supreme National Security Council."

The 32-point document will be published soon

Regarding filtering policies, Aghamiri said that evaluating the performance of past policies and examining existing challenges has led to the drafting of a 32-point document (the resolution to facilitate access to foreign platforms and promote governance). He announced that the declassification process of this document has started and its text is expected to be published soon. He also emphasized the necessity of documenting the statistics related to the use of filter breakers and said that there are differences of opinion in this field, but journalists should help to provide clear statistics from the authorities.

Content producers' share of Internet revenue

In another part of his speech, the head of the National Center for Virtual Space addressed the issue of content revenue sharing and said that the purpose of this policy is to generate revenue for domestic content producers from the traffic consumed by users. According to him, the implementation of this plan can create economic opportunity for producers of educational, scientific, cultural and entertainment content and also help to develop the digital content industry in the country.
