I received the following report from a network operator in Teheran: --- snip --- SMS is down since friday for all three cell operators. In the areas that riot is taken place, cell phones are not working. Outgoing calls to certain countries are blocked. DCI, the organization in charge of internet connectivity, that provides internet transit for local isps has taken down 80% of its uplink connectivity and currently only a few peers (TTNET as far as I know) are active. --- snip --- - Jared On Jun 14, 2009, at 12:50 AM, bobbyjim@gmail.com wrote:

I exchanged notes with someone in Tehran shortly after 6am EDT this morning. NPR is at least partially incorrect.

Npr (All things considered) is reporting that cell phones and Internet access in at least Teheran if not all of Iran is down. Reporters are unable to connect out.
Anyone hear of anything? -steve
