Hossein Derakhshan
After six years in prison, an Iranian blogger sees a very different Internet
Hossein Derakhshan didn’t expect to find himself in an Iranian prison, but that’s where he spent from late 2008 to November 2014. He was sentenced to 20 years for political writing, as well as traveling to Israel, a ‘hostile state’ under Iranian law. Six years later, he’s reemerged into a very different world.
