The head of the Iranian cyber police unit has introduced new measures to crack down on online activities that reportedly contravene Islamic, social, and cultural norms

The latest measure will monitor the behavior of Iranian people in the digital realm, singling out anything that may be viewed as “moral and cultural offenses” by the regime.

This move is largely seen as a continuation of the authorities’ renewed crackdown on women’s hijabs, dubbed “Plan Noor.” The so-called morality police have resumed their aggressive practices on the streets since April 13, targeting women refusing to cover their hair.

Vahid Majid, the Cyber Police Chief, detailed that the crackdown would target individuals involved in streaming “obscene” live content, producing “vulgar” materials, and engaging in online modeling.
