No Artesh posts since the latest unpleasantness where he lives.

There is an internet blockade in Iran, so don't expect him back until that's resolved.

He has been on my mind.

I have a couple of friends that I talk to (via VOI) occasionally in Iran. I cannot get a hold of them now, and reports are that the Iranian government has physically disconnected most of the internet infrastructure at the data type transmission nodes (ie land, undersea, satellite, and at internal network server farms). Primarily to prevent internal unauthorized communication and use for coordination of rebellion(s), and partly to limit any intelligence and/or cyber attack opportunities for foreign adversaries.

US strikes have also destroyed a significant number of server farms and data network centers.

YES, YES, YES, and YES again. Now I do/did know what FB stood for and I have looked at some of it though I personally have never been involved with it. There is good "stuff" on it but 90% IMHO is the kind of stuff Terry posted. People use it to sell things and we actually bought our white GSD through a FB contact. Friends from back in Joliet use it to stay in contact so those are nuggets. A semi-positive is the less restrictive regulations on what can be posted/discussed but there are negatives as well to that sort of posting. For me I just can't abide all the posted CREPE and I just keep thinking over and over "Yea, so, who gives a flying fork!!" Then the phoney so called "News" that gets posted and people actually believe

I have this deal with the social media. I ignore them and they leave me alone.

 

[SaparotRob]

This is the only social media I use.

 

[Thumpalumpacus]

I post here and three other forums. Other than that, nothing. No FB, X, TikTok, IG, etc etc etc.

Hey Marcel. The Situation is far worse than that.

Even TOR / Onion is not responding.

Only occasional "Configs" for pragrams like V2Ray, like the one I'm using now, work.

 

[Airframes]

Great to know you're safe, and hope you can still be here with us.

[SaparotRob]

What a huge relief it is to from you ARTESH
It's too easy to think terrible things in frightening times.

[N4521U]

[ARTESH]

I have no idea what to say?

Or what reaction to do?

Even i don't feel excited, nor fury!!!

It seems all words have lost all their "weights".

Anyway, here I am.

Thank you for all your kind messages and words.

 

[Shortround6]

Stay safe, from both sides.
I am sure that many others here join me in thinking of you and hoping for you and your family and friends continues safety.
