Iran protests news - Google to be blocked, Twitter next?

In Iran protests news, Iran is hot with the activity of protests against the government. The Tehran rally is led by Opposition leader Mehdi Karroubi. Karroubi was to attend a rally near Saddeqiya Square but his bodyguards were attacked by the Iranian Government's Basij militia.

Meanwhile Iran has stated its intention to block Google mail permanently. How Iran can do this and block every kind of proxy system is a question. Moreover, it's not working perfectly. While an email usage drop has been experienced, Google's network is reported to be working perfectly.

There's no word on Iran's actions against Twitter, if any.

And finally for this Iran news post, the video below shows a poster of Ayatollah Khamenei and Ayatollah Khomeini, (or Grand Ayatollah Sayyed Ruhollah Mousavi Khomeini, whom you know as Ayatollah Khomeini) being ripped up during Iran protests:



Stay tuned.
