This is what censorship looks like. This is what should get people angry. Not localization changes, but actual government-mandated changes or bans. By censoring the internet, Iran is not protecting its citizens but rather the ruling government.

Or maybe sometimes censorship actually DOES protect its citizens?

That's a funny tantrum. It's barely even censorship cause the game isn't about speech. I can't think of a single reason any country besides the US should've allowed Pokémon Go to operate there, phoning location scans back home.
