Title says its all. Basically during the middle of the election demonstrations the Iranian govt blocked both Google and Yahoo. Google did nothing but Yahoo called up the Iranian government and agreed to give them all email accounts of all the individuals who have Yahoo accounts and are publishing blogs in exchange for open access again.
