In this month’s episode we look back on Iran’s National Information Network, provide an overview of its development history, and ask what the implications of the network are for internet freedom in Iran. To discuss SHOMA, we’re joined by Simin Kargar, research fellow at the Berkman Klein Centre for Internet and Society.
