Another draft paper we found suggests that Iran is planning to control third-party applications such as X (Twitter), Telegram, and Instagram in order to influence public opinion and conduct what could be described as a cognitive war. Although these projects were initially introduced under positive or protective frameworks—appearing to aim at preventing external manipulation—they ultimately seem to offer more advanced methods of control. Much of this work has reportedly been carried out by universities in Tehran, whose names we are not disclosing. The projects have progressed through the use of AI platforms and teams of researchers, with the apparent goal of preventing people from organizing around ideas that conflict with official positions.
