Satellite dishes are illegal in Iran or at least were up until 1996. I lived in Iran during the 90s and I recall my uncle's dish was confiscated and he had to pay a hefty fine. But you don't have to take my word for it. There is all kinds of evidence to support that: http://www.latimes.com/world/middleeast/la-fg-iranian-police...
Ah... my mistake for assuming that. (I edited my post.)
Regardless, my focus was not on the legality of dishes, but the amount of people who have them.
With 40-70 percent of households owning a satellite dish, even after being illegal for over 20 years, it seems unlikely that Toosheh is more "dangerous" than the limited internet that Iran already has.
