Boycott Nokia Siemens for helping Iranian regime


Boycott Nokia Siemens Networks for helping the Iranian regime I am protesting against the role of Nokia Siemens Networks in helping the Iranian regime carry out intrusive monitoring of email and other private communications of hundreds of thousands of Iranians. Such intercepts have been a vital step in the arrest, imprisonment, torture and rape of thousands of peaceful demonstrators since June 12. The role of Nokia Siemens Networks is now clear to millions of people in Iran. A group of workers have called it "a partner in the coup plotters' massacre of the Iranian people" and have urged everyone to "paralyse ... [it] by lodging complaints, court proceedings and a global consumer boycott of [Nokia and Siemens] products ..." I believe that Nokia Siemens Networks was fully aware of the intended use of its technology by the repressive regime in Tehran. I therefore call on Nokia Siemens Networks to terminate its advanced digital 'monitoring centre' contract with the Iranian regime immediately, disable its monitoring centre, and provide detailed and extensive information on how Iranians can circumvent the monitoring system. Until then, I will boycott Nokia and Siemens products and urge everyone to do the same.
