Interesting stuff. Another bright side to an internet that is all-too-often depressingly dark.

Which leads to a question: are these anonymous connections in any way filtered to block porn or hate sites? Would such measures be appropriate? Let's pretend we were opening communication be shipping magazines into Iran instead of Internet connections...would we honor requests for Hustler, thereby opening oursleves up to the charge that we were exporting smut, or would we keep out the crap in the hopes that the entire transaction would be beyond reproach?

And could the powers-that-be in Iran eventually go off the deep end and try to ban internet usage altogether?

I'm not trying to paint this issue in negative terms, just asking questions in good faith...
