Iranian Court Wants a Word With Zuckerberg

Facebook cofounder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been summoned by an Iranian court over privacy-violation concerns, according to news reports on Tuesday. The court in question, located in Iran's southern province of Fars, reportedly also opened a case against Facebook-owned social networking services WhatsApp and Instagram and ordered that they be blocked. Either Zuckerberg or an appointed attorney must appear in court, an Iranian official told state news agency ISNA.
