Hi, Since 5 of January 2016, Many popular circumvention tools such as Psiphon have seen a large drop in their connections from Iran. Which leaves millions of users behind the censorship wall.
You can clearly see the drop on Tor service for Iran in this period: https://metrics.torproject.org/userstats-relay-country.html?start=2015-11-12&end=2016-02-10&country=ir&events=off about 2 weeks ago in Manototv.com website I've launched a survey and one of the questions which I've asked from people was : " if you are not using Lantern, which proxy tools are you using. " about 7K people were participated in that survey. You can find the survey here, I hope it help you guys to develop more tools and also help these organisations to improve their services. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MjQa9MHZmFx023a3ZvTYSgkzstJm9lZ77ogf6YyZiXw/edit?usp=sharing P.S: in the last 1 month I've received 198K new emails to get proxy tool from Iran. // on Telegram, my bot is serving 127K users which in total they've requested about 500K times to get circumvention tools [ Psiphon,Lantern,Hotspotshield,FreedomVPN ].
