Really smart decision, in hindsight.

This is what censorship looks like. This is what should get people angry. Not localization changes, but actual government-mandated changes or bans. By censoring the internet, Iran is not protecting its citizens but rather the ruling government.

Or maybe sometimes censorship actually DOES protect its citizens?
