The title misrepresents the linked post, which says "there are indications of", not "that is a fact".
A commenter on the linked post says that Internet is partially restored and he can chat with a friend in Tehran over WhatsApp. Of course, that's just an anecdote, and I certainly don't know whether the Internet in Iran is partially up or not, but this HN post seems to be mostly clickbait.

Even if we had definitive proof of traffic patterns, the goalposts would just move to: 'How do you know this was a Iran's government action?' EDIT: government -> Iran's government
