A judge in Iran wants Mark Zuckerberg (http://mashable.com/category/mark-zuckerberg/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_medium=feed&utm_source=rss) to appear in court to answer privacy complaints related to Facebook-owned companies WhatsApp (http://mashable.com/category/whatsapp/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_medium=feed&utm_source=rss) and Instagram, according to the news agency ISNA (http://isna.ir/fa/news/93030602845/%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%B6%DB%8C-%D8%A7%DB%8C%D8%B1%D8%A7%D9%86%DB%8C-%D9%85%D8%AF%DB%8C%D8%B1-%D9%81%DB%8C%D8%B3%D8%A8%D9%88%DA%A9-%D8%B1%D8%A7-%D8%A7%D8%AD%D8%B6%D8%A7%D8%B1-%DA%A9%D8%B1%D8%AF).

The judge also reportedly ordered the Iranian government to block Instagram and WhatsApp, according to the Associated Press (http://bigstory.ap.org/article/iran-judge-summons-facebook-ceo-court). This is the second time in less than a week that an Iranian court has taken measures to restrict Instagram (http://mashable.com/category/instagram/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_medium=feed&utm_source=rss), one of the last Western-based social media services that remains unblocked in the countryFacebook (http://mashable.com/category/facebook/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_medium=feed&utm_source=rss), YouTube (http://mashable.com/category/YouTube?utm_campaign=&utm_context=textlink&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=), and Twitter (http://mashable.com/category/twitter/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_medium=feed&utm_source=rss) have long been inaccessible there, although some have found workarounds.
