Iranian journalist and blogger Sina Motallebi has been arrested over "materials in his Web site, including interviews he gave to foreign media." Motallebi, in a Guardian article from October of last year: "There is a lack of freedom of speech in Iran, so Weblogs are a good opportunity, especially for younger people, to explain their views and attitudes, because they can t explain them in any other media. They are a good way to exchange news, so they are a way to freedom and democracy, but it s still very young, less than a year old."
