The U.S.'s hand to Iran is ruthless!
Author:Global Times Time:2022.09.27
"The Iranian people will not be in isolated and in darkness." Saying this is US Secretary of State Brills.
Facing the turmoil caused by the domestic demonstration of Iran, people lament that the sensational discourse of the American political elite is here again.
However, this time, unlike the past, the US government also launched a very targeted action.
In order to quickly restore the domestic situation, Iran has implemented "internet disconnection" for some regions. This is also a standard control method for many countries around the world in the face of domestic group demonstrations and riots. India, Spain, and France have been adopted.
However, the United States publicly announced this time to hedge the local "internet disconnection" of the Iranian government, encouraging the American Internet companies and social media platforms to provide Iranian people and companies with mobile Internet services. The purpose is obviously to keep the turbulence of Iran and even more intense.
Isn't this a "color revolution"?
Moreover, the U.S. Treasury's public guidance mobilized American companies to do so. Is this obviously to make companies a "color revolution" tool?

The U.S. Treasury Department said on September 23 that the ministry is updating the guidance of the US technology company to expand the scope of the Iranian Internet services, "to fight the Iranian government's recent prevention from using the Internet."
Washington announced that "the Iranian government has cut off the Internet access of most of its 83 million citizens" and they want to change this situation.
Vice Minister of the United States Treasury, Voli Ade, said that the Ministry of Finance's Foreign Asset Control Office (OFAC) issued a change of guidance on the 23rd local time, calling on the US technology companies to provide more digital services to the Iranian people to the Iranian people Including the use of cloud computing services, and other better tools to enhance the online security and privacy of Iranians.
Washington's goal is to "help the Iranian people and better fight against their government's surveillance and review practices for their surveillance and review practices through these operations and changes."
Take a look, this intensive conflict's intention has been unable to hold back.
In the next few weeks, the Foreign Asset Control Office of the Ministry of Finance will continue to issue guidance in order to support the so -called "commitment to promoting the free flow of information" in the current administrative authorities.
In the statement on the 23rd, Brinken explicitly supported the measures taken by the US Treasury.
In detail the "General License" issued by the US Department of Finance for Iran, the main content is to reduce the sanctions scope of the implementation of software/communication services for Iran, allow social media platforms, collaborative platforms, video conference software, and video conference software and Support related cloud services for such businesses, as well as tools including communication functions, such as online maps, video games, electronic learning platforms, automatic translation, network maps, and user certification services. Iranian individuals and companies provide business cooperation and services.
At the same time, it is also encouraged to bypass the Iranian government and export (provided) to the Iranian people to use software and tools that can be used to fight against government network management and control strategies, such as anti -virus and anti -malicious software; anti -tracking software; mobile operating systems and related related Software; anti -censorship tools and related software; especially allowing Iranian developers to create local anti -surveillance and anti -censorship applications.
At this time, many netizens and media on social media set their sights on Starlink.
Prior to this, there were already netizens on social media to ask SpaceX CEO Musk, whether they could use the "Star Chain" to provide Internet services for Iranian people.
Musk's reply at that time was that the "Star Chain" system would seek exemption from the US sanctions against Iran in order to provide Internet services to customers in the country.
After the U.S. Treasury's "Guidance Opinions", people noticed that Musk stated vaguely on Twitter that his company is "starting the Star link", suggesting assistance.

Can the "Star Chain" system provide Internet services to Iranian people?
Regarding this issue, "Make up One Knife" asked many experts in related fields. Under the current conditions, even if someone stole the ground -receiving device of the "Star Chain" system to Iran The purpose of the people ".
Because the Iranian telecommunications management department is still operating normally, it has regulatory capabilities for Iran's domestic Internet. It is very difficult to bypass the Iranian telecommunications management department. Moreover, if someone uses the "Star Chain" satellite ground receiving device, it is also easy to find.
Therefore, experts are more inclined to think that Musk may want to take the opportunity to engage in a commercial hype, while the American Bayeon government wants to show its efforts to promote American "free democracy".
On the 19th of this month, the Russian Satellite News Agency published an article saying that the map of the new generation of "Star Chain" satellite network that has been announced shows that Russian residents will not be able to connect to the new generation of "Star Chain" satellite network: because Russia is not in the "Star Chain" There are also Iranian countries such as Iranian.
Earlier, Musk said on his Twitter page that the "Star Chain" satellite Internet network can currently be used on the earth's continents.
The satellite news agency said that when checking the "Star Chain" official website, there will be the following text when there is a satellite Internet in Russia: "Thank you for your interest in ordering Starlink! Because of the approval of the regulatory authorities, Starlink is currently in your area where you are located. It is not available. "According to the covering map published on the satellite network website, it is expected that Russia cannot connect to the" Star Chain "network: Russia has not been listed in the Waitlist category (alternate list) ), Such as Turkey, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia, India, Africa, and South America.
On Twitter, Oliver LINOW, an Internet expert who works for "Voice of Germany", also believes that the "Star Chain" helps Iranian protesters "almost 0"
He listed several reasons, such as the need to place the satellite receiving antenna to be seen in a very easy to see when completing the communication link, which is difficult to see it in Iran.
In addition, the current connection architecture of the "Star Chain" needs to use rail satellites, a user terminal and a ground station in non -polar regions. To use the "Star Chain", there must be special equipment with satellite antennas. It is only suitable for receiving in a fixed state. However, the mobile Internet is closed, so people cannot use their smartphones to report live on the streets. In this case, the benefits of only "star chains" that can only be fixed to operate are almost zero ...
Anyway, the development of the whole situation can not help but remind people of the saying that "there is no new thing under the sun": From the general response of the United States and Western countries, it is from the end of 2010 to the beginning of 2011. The dwelling of the practice in spring.
The US government's response basically continued the "Internet Free Strategy" advocated by Hillary. The U.S. Treasury's interpretation of the issuance of a new general license was unsurprisingly consistent with the results of the results of the Hillary State Council's dinner on January 7, 2010.
On January 8th of that year, one of the participants in the dinner party published a real -name article and clicked the core results of this discussion: Facebook, Twitter, and "oil pipes" were the tools of US foreign policy.
Although this seminar has passed for 12 years, in addition to Facebook renamed the "Yuan Universe", Hillary -style Internet freedom still dominates the core of the Democratic Party's decision -making core.
Because Shalvin and Brinken in the core team of the US government's policy this year have undertaken this core work in the U.S. State Council in Hillary, then this government has introduced such a general through the line of the Ministry of Finance. The permit is not particularly surprising.

Shen Yi, the director of the International Governance Research Base of Fudan University, told "Make up Yidao" that there are three significant characteristics of the US Treasury's license and the decision -making concepts and ideas behind it:
First, this year's US government insists on trying to turn the Internet and its related applications into an exclusive diplomatic tools of monopoly in the United States in the United States in order to obtain the asymmetric advantage of unilateral subversion to other countries.
The "Internet freedom" advocated by Hillary is that the United States and its allies have used the Internet social media platform to interfere with the asymmetric freedom of other countries and subvert other regimes of other countries, and the United States and Western companies must obey and serve this freedom.
The so -called "asymmetric" can see the US presidential election in 2016. After Hillary lost to Trump accidentally, the United States set off a political trend of chase Facebook and Twitter. Enterprises did not effectively block the penetration and utilization of Russia identified by Hillary, which actually made Moscow re -engraved the "Internet Free Strategy" in the United States and left and control the results of the presidential election.
After the presidential election in 2020, Trump was permanently banned social media accounts to eliminate his ability to mobilize through social media.
Therefore, allowing the US government to obtain specific asymmetric advantages relative to other countries, and allowing certain political factions in the country to obtain asymmetric advantages in other political factions and characters, the current US government's Internet freedom strategy has been clearly exposed.
Second, the political and business relationship with the core characteristics of the U.S. company's unconditional observation of the U.S. government's political instructions is the institutional foundation of such policies.
The private market economy of privatization is the core brand that American Internet companies continue to build in the world, but whether it is the 2010 Hillary Internet Free Strategy, the political siege after the 2016 election, the social media platform after 2020 elections witch -hunting style Placing, or the general permit when Iran is in a turbulent, all show that American political and business relations are the institutional foundation of such management and control policies.
The US Internet company was tied to the "chariot" of US diplomacy, and it became a tool of diplomatic strategy without concealment. When Washington implements the US foreign strategy, the most priority scene is to challenge and subvert other countries, encourage and enlarge the political and social turbulence of other countries, and seek software products that produce American companies, to provide software services, focus on focusing, focus On the cognitive shaping and control of other countries.
Third, the lack of coherent and consistent decision -making styles, based on the formulation of multi -department competitive bureaucratic models, continued to strengthen the chaos characteristics of related decision -making in the United States.
After the end of the Cold War, with the passage of time, a general perception of the United States to the world was a continuous decline in strategic decision -making and policy formulation capabilities. Although the policy formulation of the United States has a significant characteristic of multi -sector competitive bureaucracy, the decline rate still gives people a strong sense of chaos. Judging from the US government's policy of Iranian policy, when Iran has nothing to do with the Internet and the Internet is normal, Washington implements strict export controls on Iran. Inside.
After Iran had something to do and control the network, Washington began to encourage the exports of various products and services to Iran, set the target of exports as "promoting the internal political turmoil within Iran", even "subverting the Iranian regime", or even even It also positioned this export as "bypassing the Iranian government directly for the Iranian people."
The unknown distortion of the American hegemony comes.
Regardless of the Internet or global network space, the US government has so firmly regarded Internet companies and social media platforms as a tool to promote the "color revolution". In this unsightly way, it is not concealed to promote the general license. The symbolic policies are much higher than practicality, which is not good news.
It is a kind of "death kiss" for American companies involved.
In the future, other sovereign countries can completely require these companies to "confirm their innocence, not a subversion tool for the US government." For the U.S. government, it is even more infatuated to recognize and accept that the United States and its core allies have the special rights to subvert other countries' regimes.
