Iran has passed a new internet law that experts fear will make information on internet users more readily available to the authorities.
Press TV, a news channel funded by the Iranian government, said on Monday that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the country's president, has issued an order for the implementation of the law.
According to Press TV, the cyber law would provide internet users with "more security", as internet service providers are required to save all data sent and received by their clients for at least three months.
But critics of the legislation say the stored data would enable the authorities to monitor internet users, including anonymous bloggers opposed to the regime in the Islamic republic.

The new Internet law seems to be a tool for creating more security for internet users , but who can believe that government suddenly mentioned that security of websites and blogs are not satisfiable and they have to think about that ?
Some experts believe that this new law can be a tool for monitoring the internet users to put more limitation on that , as the law says that information must keep for 3 month after the data sent or received by the internet clients to the internet service providers .
