🚨 BREAKING: Iran may be preparing to turn the Strait of Hormuz into a DIGITAL chokepoint.

Reports suggest Tehran is considering tighter control over undersea internet cables crossing the region — potentially requiring permits, fees, and compliance with Iranian rules for foreign operators.

🌐 These cables reportedly carry: • 15–20% of global internet/data traffic
• banking transactions
• cloud infrastructure
• AI network traffic
• international financial flows

⚠️ Analysts warn any disruption or tighter control could: • slow internet connectivity
• impact financial systems
• increase geopolitical leverage
• disrupt global markets

The Strait of Hormuz is no longer just an oil chokepoint.

It is becoming a digital chokepoint too.
