Nokia Siemens Disconnects People

Last year Nokia Siemens Network Monitoring Systems sold and set up a system to curb communication among the opposition and to collect detailed information for prosecution and now we see it in action...

Selling this type of technology to oppressive regimes is not in line with the ethical code Nokia Siemens presents on its web site, or maybe this is Nokia’s idea about “making a positive impact on the society.”

From the business point of view, timing of this deal was perfect for Nokia since present situation in Iran provides an ideal environment for testing and marketing this kind of product. If it manages to limit communication among the opposition and efficiently restrict information reaching outside world, it will be easier to market to other fascist regimes around the world.

For time being it is failing, and the regime invested their money in a pile of shit thanks to the dedicated individuals and organizations providing ways around it. Next time you are buying a mobile phone remember that Nokia helps to disconnect people for good.

Hopefully Nokia sees a huge drop in sales for this. Spread the info rapidly.

is this mean, they all know who am I and what I'm typing here and there?!

Ok, I like to appreciate and thank nokia from all whos got in prisons, all who killed and all who leave this protest cause of their Greate Hi Tech tools and their efforts! ah and for the sake of bushiness, I think bin-laden would like to have one as well! so you will pass the crisis easily; go on!

It's really nice that they can monitor even contents typed of chats in Yahoo messenger! cheers for nokia staff! good job!

now I know at least, how they arrested alot of blogers (and some of pornographers too btw) in their earlier "gerdab" project! it was a question for me really how they did it! and nowa days how they can do something strange by net! so Nokia supports you!

I don't like the fact that they would sell this garbage to anyone. Iran, America, any government. Of course it's pointless in the US since the NSA simply runs splitters through the phone company data flows anyway. (Documented by FRONTLINE a couple of years ago).

I'd be happy to spread this all over the place.

What the fuck Nokia? Screw you. I hope you go bankrupt.
