When they try, they get a site that tells them it is against the law of Iran to excess this site. I heard this on the news tonight, so much for freedom. And why just you-tube, what do you think about this.

It's unfortunate, too. Probably one of the biggest cultural influences which helped the US win the cold war against the USSR was Radio Free Europe...
Too bad we can't get anything in to Iran. But Ahminejad thinks he should be able to send a letter to the American people!

What do they determine as excessive use?
I mean can you watch 1 or 2 videos but 3 or 4 would be excessive?
Or do you mean Access?
Excess means to use something too much where as access means to access something or not in the first place, I am a little confused.
I cannot see how excess use of a website could be monitored, I mean once you have conneced to it, at what point does it become excessive?
If you mean access instead of excess then that is a whole other issue.

wake up to the world more......
the usa controls google who now owns you tube.....the government even bans certain sites and items from the american people.
the chinese government controls their internet and they can only surf or find items the government allows. no harsh words, no ill words against the government, no freedom, no uploading of personal videos, etc.
just because you can do certain things in america doesn't mean you can do the same things outside our borders. each country has its own laws, regulations and restrictions.

It's illegal to do a lot of things in Iran. Try going over there and voicing your opinion the way you do here and see what happens.

Are you surprised? I'm sure there are many many other censored sites there. They have a brutal repressive govt. Looking at that should make us all appreciate how good we have it here.
