Iran president vetoes WhatsApp ban
 

https://s1.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/m...5b441e85a7.jpgIran's President Hassan Rouhani has vetoed a plan to ban WhatsApp, following a row over censorship of the popular messaging application, media reports said Wednesday. Access to social networks, including Twitter and Facebook, are routinely blocked by Iranian authorities, as are other websites considered un-Islamic or detrimental to the regime. The policy is contentious and a proposal to filter WhatsApp has caused a rupture between Rouhani's administration and a 13-member committee responsible for Internet censorship.
