Iran blocks BBC Persian website



BBC Persian.com usually gets 30 million page views a month

The Iranian authorities have started to block the BBC's Persian language internet site, for the first time.

The BBC says the level of traffic to the site from within Iran has dropped sharply over the last three days.

No official explanation has been given. The BBC has expressed concern at the action, saying it deprives many Iranians of a trusted source of news.

Chin Nut the BBC has not been banned .
Iran blocks BBC Persian Web site (http://www.upi.com/NewsTrack/view.php?StoryID=20060124-102911-7487r)
Iranians still have access to radio broadcasts in English and Persian and to BBC's English-language Web site.
The BBC's actual newsite has not banned it still is available on the internet and radio .
Now back in 2003 Iran clearly stated at the UN
Iran's president defends web control (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/3312841.stm)
Iran's policy of blocking access to certain websites has been defended by the country's authorities at the UN digital summit.

Iran's President Mohammad Khatami
Iranian authorities claim only sites not compatible with Islam are blocked
Speaking in Geneva, Iran's President Mohammad Khatami insisted that the country only blocks access to 240 "pornographic and immoral" websites.
Chin Nut maybe that means Irans Islamic censors picked up something they did not like spoken in the Persian language they deemed it un-islamic and have given a denial of service for a period of time .
President Khatami added that Western broadcasters, such as the BBC, would not be blocked in Iran.
The BBC has not been banned .

Your double standards are amusing to say the least.

[Attempt to provoke deleted] you are a hypocrit are you not,
you daily sing the tune of freedom for palestine people, yet you deny that very freedom to iranians, the basic freedom of unbiased news.

I think the bbc knows more than you or the iranian president, if there website is being blocked or not.

In thailand my home they also block foreign websites, not news websites but british bookmakers online websites, ladbrokes, corals all banned here, you are diverted to a royal thai police website, the reason is the average wage here is only 5 dollars aday, they donnt want thais gambling it is illegal here, because of poverty.

Gambling is a vice, access to local news is not, it is a basic human right, do you deny that basic right to your iranian friends walnut.

15million hits a month, suggest to me iranians are very interested in hearing what is happening in the world, something that you are keen to censor [deleted], by your continuing support of the iranian government.

I think the bbc knows more than you or the iranian president, if there website is being blocked or not.
The BBC has not been banned only its Persian language website has been blocked , not even the BBC is saying they have been banned ! And the BBC is a has been news company anyway , who the hell watches the BBC anyway ?

And the BBC is a has been news company anyway , who the hell watches the BBC anyway ?
15 million iranians in a month, hardly has-been figures, considering the bbc is not a arabic company.
