Imagine this scenario. It’s early evening in a small city in central Turkey. An Iranian woman in her mid-20s walks to the corner café. Headphones in, she listens to Radiohead’s 2 + 2 = 5.
She hasn’t set foot in Iran since she left, nor is she breaking any laws in Turkey. Her only “offence” is a phone full of Instagram videos that criticise Iran’s compulsory hijab laws. Anyone can watch them, including millions of Iranians living under those rules.
