Storm surrounding 'Internet Pro' services: Criticism of digital discrimination in Iran

A wave of public criticism has been directed in recent days toward the launch of 'Internet Pro' services in Iran. According to reports in the channels اخبارفوری خبرفوری جنگ امریکا فوری, فناوری فوری📡 and اخبارفوری خبرفوری جنگ امریکا حمله, this is a move that stirs deep controversy regarding the right to equal access to the international internet.

In the newspaper 'Etemad', which was cited in a report by اخبارفوری خبرفوری جنگ امریکا فوری, it is claimed that "pushing internet access to become a luxury or a right conditional upon payment creates unacceptable discrimination." According to the commentary presented there, "turning the internet into a 'Pro' product is nothing but an admission of the existence of disorder and lack of trust."

The criticism focuses on the fact that restricting access to technological tools and international networks does not solve the deep social problems in Iran, but rather only deepens the gaps and social polarization. The reporting sources note that even the branches of government – the executive and the judiciary – were forced to respond to the public storm surrounding the issue.

In summary, the position reflected in these reports is a clear call for a change in policy: "a demand for a return to stable, comprehensive, and exception-free access to the international internet." According to the reports, a retreat from the 'Internet Pro' decision is not perceived as a weakness of the government, but rather as "a return to the principles of effective governance and the guarantee of equal rights for all citizens."
