In the wake of new United States sanctions targeting educational resources, a growing number of Iranians are voicing their frustration over what they describe as an unjust digital exile.
With platforms like the popular language-learning app Duolingo reportedly caught in the crossfire, citizens residing within Iran are feeling the sting of these sweeping geopolitical policies. For many, losing access to basic educational tools is more than just an inconvenience; it represents a profound sense of being systematically erased from the broader global community.
As diplomatic tensions continue to ripple into everyday life, the blockade on educational platforms raises critical questions about the human cost of international sanctions and the fundamental right to accessible learning.
