Comparison with Iran
In contrast, Aghamiri pointed to the existence of a national information network in Iran, stating: "Since we have a national information network, no POS device goes offline. Meanwhile, in France, with the internet cut off, all devices are affected." He regarded this as a sign of progress in the country's communication infrastructure and emphasized the need for the development of local platforms.
Aghamiri added: "The interaction of platforms is an opportunity for the development of local platforms in countries. We can achieve greater growth and advancement in the field of information technology through cooperation and synergy between domestic and foreign platforms. These collaborations can help improve the quality of online and economic services."
Impact on Users and Businesses
Considering the current state of the internet in France and its impact on people's daily lives, Aghamiri pointed out the negative effects of this internet cut on businesses and economic activities. He said: "Users and businesses must take advantage of existing facilities and move towards using local platforms to remain safe from communication disruptions in critical situations."
Ultimately, the Secretary of the Supreme Council of Cyber Space emphasized the importance of developing local platforms and the interaction among them, calling for more attention to this issue. These remarks not only refer to the current state of the internet in one country but also relate to global challenges in the digital world.
