Let's suppose an Ehsan Hosseinzadeh residing in Islamic Iran wants to order The Planet's services, What should he do? He finds a Payam K. Rad or someone else in San marcos, California or some other place, Payam comes to Islamic Iran for a visit and they become so close friends that Payam applies for Ehsan's credit card on his return to the U.S. and lets Ehsan pretend Payam's address as his, He's ensured no one over there will ever actually check if that Ehsan resides in the same location as he's filled on The Planet's forms and applications. "don't be worried Payam, there's no careful verification, what would you say to The Planet if they call?"...
In this case does The Planet provide its services to these Ehsans? Does it always provide its servers to an Ehsan of the above kind?
"OFAC has determined that the provision by U.S. persons of international Internet connectivity services to civilian customers in Iran can be authorized on a case-by-case basis by specific license to applicants."
Has The Planet allowed everyone to rent their servers and resell them to hundreds of persons in (Islamic) Iran like PersianTools have done?
Do all those sites have that license?
"1. The specific Internet services that an applicant seeks to provide can be received in Iran using non-U.S. origin goods, technology and software that may be exported to Iran by non-U.S. persons without violating ITR §§ 560.204 or 560.205;"
Are The Planet staff Non-U.S. persons? Are The Planet's servers and hadware Iranian?
"2. No goods, technology or software will be exported, directly or indirectly, to Iran from the United States, or by U.S. persons, wherever located, and no U.S. origin goods, technology, or software will be exported, directly or indirectly, to Iran by non-U.S. persons in violation of ITR §§ 560.204"
Are The Planet's groups sure no U.S. origin goods and software are used in PersianTools services for Persons in (Islamic) Iran?
Does The Planet allow their Islamic Iranian resellers to have warez, movie pirating forums and the other illegal stuff on their primary sites just like:
PersianTools warez forum:
http://forum.persiantools.com/forumdisplay.php?f=66
PersianTools DVB hacking forum:
http://forum.persiantools.com/forumdisplay.php?f=52
PersianTools Pirated DVDs marketplace:
http://forum.persiantools.com/forumdisplay.php?f=90
and their Islamic Iranian Resellers' clients to violate the copyrights in the same way as their reseller?
If a customer of The Planet violates the economic sanctions and obtains Iranian clients, how could it not be an issue with The Planet while almost all these clients are persons in (Islamic) Iran like the PersianTools?
What is the name of the provision of services to customers like PersianTools?
Isn't that doing business indirectly with Persons in (Islamic) Iran using the U.S made goods, hardware and software?
While PersianTools host all sites related to their government in their own datacenters on the soil under the rule of the Islamic Republic and the (Islamic) Iranian companies like ParsOnline explicitly state Piracy and copyrights violations are of no importance for them, why should The Planet insist on hosting all those sites from (Islamic) Iran?
