I was reminded of this article when DWS mentioned that presidents get more support during military times. Seems Iran's elections are coming up as well on March 2. Although it's still a long way to go, I can see why they want to jump the numbers now.

Also, the internet has began to have restrictions in Iran, such as “giving Internet cafes 15 days to install security cameras [and] start collecting detailed personal information on customers and document users’ online footprints"...The rules also require users to furnish personally-identifying information in order to log on to the Internet at the cafes, including the user’s “name, father’s name, address, telephone and national identification numbers.”
