A new bill by members of the Islamic Consultative Assembly (Iran’s parliament) aims to expand «censorship» and impose further restrictions on access to the internet.

🔸A group of members of Iran’s Islamic Consultative Assembly has prepared a draft of a new bill with the aim of expanding «censorship» and imposing greater restrictions in the area of access to the internet.

🔸The bill «Regulating Cyberspace» is a revised version of a previous bill titled «Bill to Protect Cyberspace» that was shelved after widespread criticism.
