🚨🇮🇷 IRAN JUST VOTED TO BAN STARLINK - USERS FACE PRISON, FINES… AND FLOGGING
Iran’s parliament has passed a law making it illegal to use Starlink - Elon’s satellite internet service that helps people get online when regimes pull the plug.
Violators could face heavy fines, up to 2 years in prison, or even... flogging.
Starlink has become a digital lifeline during blackouts, especially in conflict zones like the recent war with Israel.
Now, Tehran wants it shut down.
And it’s not just about internet control... the same session also passed a law making vague “cooperation with foreign entities” punishable by death.
No word on how many Iranians are actually using Starlink.
But clearly, it’s enough to rattle the regime.
