Iran has completely disconnected the country from the internet to halt Starlink access during civil protests lasting nearly two weeks.
Initially, the government cut fixed and mobile internet services. Users then turned to Starlink, SpaceX's satellite network, which is notoriously hard to block.
To counter this, Iran deployed advanced military-grade signal jammers. These devices limit Starlink data traffic and disrupt GPS signals on user terminals, effectively neutralizing the service.
The move underscores escalating efforts to control information flow during unrest. Information sourced from Forbes.
