Jabali 17 years ago: Filtering is one of the necessities of society

Peyman Jabali, the current head of IRIB, told ISNA 17 years ago when he was a faculty member of that organization:

Sometimes some security issues require the use of information-limiting tools such as filtering.

Limiting access to information in any society is one of the necessities of that society.

Peyman Jabali, whose term as president of IRIB faced a sharp drop in audience and consequently a significant decrease in income, in a letter to the president on January 16, 2023, requested the filtering of the Filmo home screening platform due to the boycott of IRIB by artists.
