Stealth signals bypass Iran's internet blackout
IEEE Spectrum·
A non-profit organization, NetFreedom Pioneers, has developed a system called Toosheh that delivers curated data via satellite TV signals, effectively bypassing Iran's internet blackouts. This technology provides a crucial lifeline for Iranians to access uncensored news, educational materials, and software during government-imposed communication shutdowns. Toosheh utilizes free-to-air satellite broadcasts, making it difficult for authorities to detect or block, and offers a private, untraceable method for information dissemination when traditional internet access is unavailable.
