Remote support for Iranian protestors making it harder them to reach the outside world?

[chris () blask org]

A friend of mine live-blogging the incident asked this:

"...there seems to be a raging debate as to whether the DDOS attacks on government websites screws up bandwidth and 
make it harder for ordinary Iranians to connect there." Would love some informed opinions on this topic."

Anyone have an idea what connectivity to/from Iran consists of?  Think all the page-reload DDOS stuff could disrupt 
outbound access from the protesters?
