If Toyota or BMW and other car makers face safety issues recall their cars and took responsibility. Probably public pressure , media coverage and governments’ outrage played a significant role.
But if Toyota were DigiNotar, the drivers safety has been and remained at risk. DigiNotar chose silence option where Iranain users seem to be more and more in danger.
What makes a difference between two is simple: The public pressure. Let’s squeeze out the TRUTH!
If you get hacked in the western countries, in most cases your credit card info fall in the hands of thieves. In Iran when security forces come after you and hack your info, your WHOLE Life is in jeopardy.
Well, it seems it happened when “a security firm in the Netherlands,DigiNotar, had seemingly provided a certificate to “someone” in Iran that allowed access to all secure traffic over Google within Iran.”
Google, Tor, Yahoo have become open books. Emails and files are read.
THE QUESTION IS WHY DigiNotar was silent for about two months. It is incompetence or beyond it.
May be an Iranian life does not matter for a western company? What about hundreds?
Silence can kill and lead to torture and prison in this case. We ask Iranians and non Iranians to ask DigiNotar gets investigated.
Our campaign is aimed at raising awareness of Iranian netizents dangerous situation especially after Diginotar scandal
