ACTION ALERT

[em_h]

If you are on Twitter, consider changing your location and time-zone to Tehran today. Iranian police are now arresting Twitter-users, and creating a protective fog of Twitter accounts by relocating yourself to Tehran may help to safeguard the dissidents (and indeed, apolitical Twitter users who may get swept up as well).

Possibly using a proxy would help to confuse the police further, as it would make it harder to determine whether you are or are not actually in Tehran, and who you are.

I am not on Twitter myself, but I know some of you are, so I thought I would spread the word. It's a small action, but could be constructive.

Have done so, thanks for the heads-up.
