Revenue sharing: the key to growth of the local content industry in Iran

"Content revenue sharing" is among the economic issues of cyberspace and the content industry that has been addressed in various ways around the world. In Tir (June–July) 1403 (2024/25), the Supreme Council of Cyberspace adopted a resolution titled "Policies and Requirements for Network Traffic Tariff-Setting and Content Revenue Sharing," which has been accompanied by various reactions.

Based on data mining by the Namafar Center for Policy Research and Data Analysis, from 21 Tir to 6 Mordad (July–August) 1404 (2025/26), 239 news items about the "Content Revenue-Sharing Document" were published in news agencies and news websites.

An analysis of the stance and sentiment of the published news shows that 40 percent of the items had a negative stance toward it. This is while 28 percent of the news had a positive and supportive stance toward the document. Also, 32 percent of the items were neutral and without orientation.

Also, although principlist news agencies have produced a larger number of items about the revenue-sharing document, the news agencies' orientation toward the document has no connection with their factional classification.
