Still working on more details. It seems only people connected to
AS12880 are being routed through a proxy doing more filtering. Granted,
this AS12880 seems to cover most of Tehran.

I suspect that this is a test for the 13/14th national holiday when they
roll out something countrywide. Given the partial incompetence in rolling
out this test, it will be interesting to see what is actually rolled
out nationwide, if anything.

I'm open to other interpretations as well.
