It is day 34 of the internet blackout in Iran. But while it is the longest in their history, it does not mean that Iranians are without internet.
In Iran, there is the global internet, and then the intranet, or National Information Network, which is controlled by the Iranian government.

“Marketplace Tech” host Meghan McCarty Carino spoke with Rashidi about the current status of internet connection in Iran.
