Iran's recent internet shutdown demonstrates a dangerous two-tiered internet strategy, where the state controls access based on loyalty and necessity, isolating citizens while ensuring connectivity for officials. This model, which retrofits existing infrastructure rather than building a new one like China's, is highly exportable and poses a significant threat to global internet freedom.
