Users were unable to open popular sites including Amazon.com and YouTube following instructions to service providers to filter them.<\/p>\n<p>Similar edicts have been issued against Wikipedia, the internet encyclopaedia, IMDB.com, an online film database, and the New York Times site. Attempts to open the sites are met with a page reading: &quot;The requested page is forbidden.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>The clampdown was ordered by senior judiciary officials in the latest phase of a campaign that has seen high-speed broadband facilities banned in an attempt to impede &quot;corrupting&quot; foreign films and music. It is in line with a campaign by Iran&#8217;s Islamist president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, to purge the country of western cultural influences.<\/p>\n<p>Iran was among 13 countries branded &quot;enemies of the internet&quot; last month by the human rights group, Reporters Without Borders, which cited state-sanctioned blocking of websites and the widespread intimidation and jailing of bloggers.<\/p>\n<p>Critics accuse Iran of using filtering technology to censor more sites than any country apart from China. Until now, targets have been mainly linked to opposition groups or those deemed &quot;immoral&quot; under Iran&#8217;s Islamic legal code. Some news sites, such as the BBC&#8217;s Farsi service, are also blocked.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;We have asked the judiciary, who are in charge of filtering, to explain the decisions on all the sites specified but so far the only reply we have is a confirmation of the block on Wikipedia. We don&#8217;t know why,&quot; said a senior technician with Datak, a service provider.<\/p>\n<p>The ban on YouTube reflects a growing official sensitivity to private films on the internet, an issue highlighted by a recent online video which appears to show an Iranian soap opera star having sex.<\/p>\n<p>With some 7.5 million surfers, Iran is believed to have the highest rate of web use in the Middle East after Israel. The net&#8217;s popularity has prompted an estimated 100,000 bloggers, many opposed to the Islamic regime. Some blogs are substitutes for Iran&#8217;s once-flourishing, but now largely supressed, reformist press.<\/p>\n<p>Last week Mohammed Tourang, head of the information bureau&#8217;s cultural committee, warned Iranian websites of stricter rules by announcing steps to stamp out &quot;immoral and illegal&quot; content. He said site owners would be given official reminders to eliminate forbidden material. Special attention would be paid to content judged to be a threat to national unity or insulting to sacred religious texts and symbols. Students and academics say the move limits their ability to conduct research.<\/p>\n<p>The purge mirrors a rising tide of censorship in Iranian publishing which has resulted in the banning of hundreds of books, including western classics. Illegal satellite dishes have also been seized.<br \/>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robert Tait in Tehran The Guardian &ndash; Iran yesterday shut down access to some of the world&rsquo;s most popular websites.
