Tens of thousands of people are now hitting the streets in Iran. Their government is disrupting phone, internet, and t.v. service.
Here is a link to a website called OneMillionNedas, showing the areas where tens of thousands of Iranians are protesting the brutal Iranian government. From Wikipedia: "The death of Neda Agha-Soltan[6] (Persian: ندا آقا سلطان - Nedā Āġā Soltān; January 23, 1983 – June 20, 2009) drew international attention after she was killed during the 2009 Iranian election protests.[7] Her death was captured on video by bystanders and broadcast over the Internet[8] and the video became a rallying point for the opposition.[8] It was described as "probably the most widely witnessed death in human history".[9] Nedā (ندا) is a word used in Persian to mean "voice", "calling," or "divine message," and she has been referred to as the "voice of Iran".[10][11][12] Her death became iconic in the struggle of Iranian protesters against the disputed election of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad"

Now these protestors I can get behind. They have been subjected to Shariah law and top down micromanagement. I think they are a pretty smart people judging by their past. Here's hoping they can make the difference.
