OFAC Continues to Push Open Lines of Communication in Iran, Sudan and Cuba

The U.S. Department of Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has announced another step in the effort to bring free, open communications to Iran, Sudan and Cuba. On March 8, 2010, OFAC issued new General Licenses that authorize the export of certain Internet-based communications services, thus directly encouraging the free flow of information and communications from Iran, Sudan and Cuba.
