Inkriql Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 What you might not expect is that the government of a country like Iran, where a new draconian internet law will further reduce online freedoms and criminalize circumventing software, is somehow linked with an overseas VPN provider. That's why allegations that Hamid Rezazadeh - son of Vice President for Women and Family Affairs Ensieh Khazali - is behind the Vancouver-based Betternet VPN have sparked many concerns, both at home and across the global VPN sector. However, it wasn't difficult for Iranian social media users to get deeper into the story by finding the Rezazadeh's profile on the professional website Rocketreach. This clearly describes him as the software manager, chief executive officer and founder of Betternet VPN. Despite the post now disappearing from the site, the vice president's brother Mehdi Khazali confirmed the truthfulness of such accusations. "He closed his company in Iran and moved to Canada where he created another company that is active in the field of VPNs," he told to RFE/RL(opens in new tab).
