ⓘ The following post concerns Persian subscribers of the channel.
سؤال: پیامرسان هایی به من معرفی شدهاند که از طریق وای-فای و بلوتوث با گوشی های دیگر ارتباط برقرار میکنند. آیا امن هستند؟
شبکه توری بیسیم مناسب ارتباطات برد کوتاه (داخل یک ساختمان یا شهرک) بوده و در صورت قطع شدن اینترنت بینالملل امکان برقراری ارتباطات برون مرزی ندارد.
امنیت این برنامه ها تنها زمانی قابل تضمین است که متنباز و بازتولیدپذیر بوده، و توسط پژوهشگران مستقل ممیزی امنیتی شده باشند. در غیر این صورت، امکان فاحش مکاتبات شما توسط ضعف های امنیتی و یا بدافزار وجود دارد.
پیامرسان Briar در سال ۲۰۱۸ منتشر شد و بر بستر وای-فای، بلوتوث، و شبکه Tor کار میکند. این پیامرسان متنباز و بازتولیدپذیر بوده (نسخه F-Droid) و توسط نهاد های امنیت سایبری معتبر ممیزی امنیتی شده است.
پیامرسان Bitchat در سال ۲۰۲۵ منتشر شد و بر بستر بلوتوث و پروتکل ارتباطی Nostr کار میکند. این پیامرسان متنباز، اما بازتولیدناپذیر است. احتمال آسیبپذیری رمزنگاری بیتچت، با توجه به سن کم آن و عدم ممیزی امنیتی پروژه، بسیار بالا است. از پیامرسان های متفرقهٔ انشعاب یافته از بیتچت بپرهیزید.
پیامرسان Bridgify در سال ۲۰۱۴ منتشر شد و بر بستر بلوتوث کار میکند. این پیامرسان متنبسته بوده و ضعف های امنیتی متعدد دارد.
تا حد امکان، توصیه میکنم از شبکه های تمرکززدا مانند Matrix و Chatmail استفاده کنید.

⚠️ Update: #Iran's internet blackout is now the longest nation-scale internet shutdown on record in any country, exceeding all other comparable incidents in severity having entered its 37th consecutive day after 864 hours.
How does this compare to other countries and regions in digital darkness?
Iran is the first country to have had internet connectivity and then subsequently lost it by reverting to a national network, while others such as North Korea have skipped the connected phase and been internationally isolated for longer.
Intermittent digital shutdown incidents such as Myanmar, and those experiencing restoration after several weeks like Sudan, and sub-national incidents like Kashmir and Tigray have also been recorded over a longer period.
Wartime damage to infrastructure in countries at war like Ukraine and Gaza has also resulted in extended reductions in connectivity due to damaged infrastructure, resulting in an observable reduction in users though no war is known to have sent an entire country offline.

Another draft paper we found suggests that Iran is planning to control third-party applications such as X (Twitter), Telegram, and Instagram in order to influence public opinion and conduct what could be described as a cognitive war. Although these projects were initially introduced under positive or protective frameworks—appearing to aim at preventing external manipulation—they ultimately seem to offer more advanced methods of control. Much of this work has reportedly been carried out by universities in Tehran, whose names we are not disclosing. The projects have progressed through the use of AI platforms and teams of researchers, with the apparent goal of preventing people from organizing around ideas that conflict with official positions.

آسیب قطع اینترنت حالا به بچههای پروژهای هم داره میرسه؛ پروژههایی که چندین ماه روش کار شده و حالا بخاطر محدودیت اینترنت قابل تحویل نیست پس دریافتی هم نخواهد داشت (دستمزد چندین ماه زحمت از بین رفت).
بچههایی که کارهای بینالمللی داشتند هم آسیب زیادی دیدند، بخصوص بیاعتمادی جامعه بینالمللی برای همکاری با ایرانیها.
با چندتا از بچهها صحبت میکردم یکی از دوستان جمله جالبی رو گفت :
که دشمن داخلی، بدتر از دشمن خارجی ...

ضرری که حکومت داره به ما وراد میکنه از جنگ با اسرائیل - آمریکا بیشتر هست.
من میتونم زن و بچهام رو از موشک نجات بدم ببرمشون یک روستا.
ولی با دست خالی و چندماه از جیب خوردن، نمیتونم اونارو از گرسنگی نجات بدم بخصوص اینکه نمیدونم تا چندوقت دیگه شرایط اینطوری هست.

The damage from the internet blackout in Iran is now affecting freelance developers and project-based workers. These are projects that teams have poured months of hard work into—only for them to become undeliverable due to the severe internet restrictions. As a result, there will be no payment. Months of effort and earned wages have simply vanished.
Those working on international projects have been hit especially hard. Beyond the immediate financial losses, the international community is increasingly losing trust in collaborating with Iranians, creating long-term damage to future opportunities.
While talking with some of the affected developers, one of them shared a striking thought:
“The harm this regime is inflicting on us is even greater than the damage from a war with Israel or America.
If there were missiles falling, I could at least grab my wife and children and flee with them to a village somewhere to keep them safe.
But with empty hands and several months of expenses eating away at our savings, I don’t know how to protect my family from hunger—especially when I have no idea how long this situation will last.”
An internal enemy, it seems, can be far more devastating than an external one.

🌐 آموزش کاهش ۷۵ درصدی مصرف یوتیوب!
پلتفرم یوتیوب ویدیو ها را با Codec های متفاوت مانند AVC و VP9 و AV1 برای کاربران Encode میکند. دلیل این کار پشتیبانی بهینه از دستگاه های ضعیف، کاهش مصرف باتری و همچمین بالانس فشار بر روی سرورها میباشد. شما میتوانید با استفاده از یک افزونه، AV1 را که فشردگی خیلی بالاتری دارد پیشفرض قرار دهید.

Khadija Alipour's will was found on her person when she was shot on January 8, 2026. It reads as follows:
I am an Iranian, born to a worker. If I’m bleeding out here in the street today, there is only one reason: you — the one in power who laughs at my pain.
Today we Iranians stand in these streets with our lives in our hands, ready to take back what is rightfully ours.
We are not terrorists. We are not rioters. And we are nobody's puppets for foreign hands.
With pride, we are honest sons and daughters of workers, protesters who have come to seize our rights — our country — from the spoiled children of the elite.
We will stay in these streets and shout with one voice: We are Iranians.
We have roots in this soil. We will stay. We will fight. We will die.
We will take Iran back.
Death to the dictator.
[Signature: Child of the soil of Iran]

The current state of internet #censorship and the censor's work is a perfect example of this old tale:
A traveling couple was stopped by bandits. The bandits said the woman had to dance to let them pass. She danced, and they were allowed through, but afterward, the husband became troubled. The wife asked, "I saved our lives, so why are you upset?" The husband replied, "The dancing was to get us through, but why did you put so much flirtatious energy into it?"
The sheer scale of these malicious methods, from Active Probing to Fingerprinting, goes far beyond the original mission. It’s "technical coquetry" to impress the system.
