Hi!

I can see that the Afghan govt is dangerously drifting towards an Iranian internet model, possibly with even more restrictions on the internal side too.

I am part of those who are working to give some form of internet connection to the Iranians, so I wanted to ask what the situation is on the ground.

I can see that the cost of local VPS is absurdly high, so a reverse tunnel is out of the possibilities for many. Are you getting ready for a DNS based model? HTTPS relay?

Basically, what did you learn from the situation in Iran?

Thanks

I had some kids coming up with "say wallah" (say that you swear by god) when they don't believe something. It's somehow unexpected from the average Liam son of a flute band member but nothing bad.

They don't know and I'd never admit that I understand Arabic, but when a pupil said something I can't repeat about the mum of another boy and a donkey, I couldn't pretend that I didn't understand.

He apologised saying that he didn't know what it meant, which is somehow even worse because you're parroting something you don't understand.

And that's how I ended up writing one of the most f-ed up referrals.
