5 RULES FOR HELPING IRANIANS ON TWITTER

1. Change your name and location to Tehran and change your time setting to GMT+3:30. This will provide cover for the Tweeters in Tehran.

2. If you have proxy IP numbers to contribute, keep them private. DM them to @stopAhmadi or @iran09

3. Use only #iranelection or #gr88

4. Use your common sense to sniff a tweet for Iranian government misinformation - try and find corroboration before you retweet. Here is a list of FAKE IRAN TWEETERS http://twitspam.org/?p=1403

5. Never name a source. Simply relay the information from an Iranian source using F/Iran at the beginning.

  1. DO NOT publish names of Iranian informants at ANY COST. The Iranian government is KILLING THESE PEOPLE. Do NOT make someone's information cost him or her his or her LIFE! PROTECT YOUR SOURCES AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!!
