Iran Officially Bans Elon Musk's Starlink Service 🌐
The Iranian parliament has passed a new strict law criminalizing the use of Starlink, the satellite internet service provided by Elon Musk.
📡 Importance:
It is said that over 100,000 secret Starlink stations are operating throughout Iran, helping citizens bypass state-controlled internet outages, especially during censorship and protests in wartime.
🧵 Here’s what’s at stake:
❌ Starlink users may face fines, imprisonment, flogging, and even the death penalty for "corruption on earth."
⚖️ The law is pending final approval from the Iranian Guardian Council (and is expected to be passed).
🌍 Starlink is still operational in Iran, as Musk reactivated it during the June war between Iran and Israel.
🔐 It’s bigger than just Iran:
This is a global battleground for digital freedom, between decentralized technology and authoritarian firewalls.
🧠 Implications for cryptocurrencies and Web 3:
🔓 It underscores the urgent need for decentralized internet and blockchain-based communication tools.
💬 It may boost the growth of censorship-resistant protocols and mesh networks.
📈 Growing optimism towards freedom-supporting technologies like $STARLINK (if tokenized), $MASK, $AR, and privacy coins.
