 Iran Lifts Ban On Whatsapp And Google Play


Iranian authorities have lifted a ban on Meta’s (META.O) instant messaging platform WhatsApp and Google Play (GOOGL.O) as a first step to scale back internet restrictions, Iranian state media reported on Tuesday.

Social media platforms were widely used in anti-government protests in Iran.


In September the United States called on Big Tech to help evade online censorship in countries that heavily sensor the internet, including Iran.
