Twittering in Tehran
Inlander:
Even if this idea worked, I'd be concerned that it would provide fuel for the Iranian rulers' "The protests are all a Western plot originating outside Iran" fire.
Reed:
I think that's why we need to keep the support at the citizen level, not the government level (I appreciate that Obama is staying the fuck out of it)
est:
Also, have you talked to the "average person" in your own home country about proxies? Usually they don't have a fucking clue.
Patrick:
Hell, I don't even have a fucking clue. I know what they do and how they work on a very basic level, but that's the absolute extent of my knowledge. And I'm the guy who first brought it up here.
Reed:
Well that's the great thing about the activists having such great support from university students. Even if they don't understand exactly what's happening, I think the students who have been forced out of the universities will teach the average citizen how to properly wage an information war.
(P.S. I have an Iranian friend who is going to university in the US and she has been doing a pretty good job of keeping us all informed via facebook)
