The attorney general of the Iranian province of Fars on Wednesday denied a report that a local court had summoned Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg over privacy violations, despite complaints having been filed by some individuals. Iranian state news agency ISNA reported on Tuesday that a conservative court had opened a case against instant messaging services WhatsApp and Instagram while also summoning Zuckerberg over the complaints. Reports regarding the summoning of Zuckerberg, the CEO of Facebook, by a court in Fars are completely false, the attorney general, Ali Alghasi-Mehr, said according to official state IRNA. But there are complaints by specific people over Facebook regarding the printing of certain videos and films, he added.
