Turkish Government Just Banned Twitter ***DEVELOPING***

reply to post by ltinycdancerg


The nerve of some people! Who the F%*k is he to tell people that they cant use social media? is this some kind of sick joke? He should be thrown out for just making such threats!

I don't live in Turkey, why should I care? I suppose I'll be told "You cannot suppress something that gives people a voice" ?????
Like before twitter they didn't have one? How many times has somebody said something on twitter and INSTANTLY thought, OH BOY, I'm GONNA HEAR ABOUT THIS! What's next? Ban the internet? Censoship on ATS? Dogs and Cats, sleeping together! I'm pretty sure in Turkey, they ELECT people. I may be wrong. As I say, I don't live there. But if this is the case, then doing something as STUPID as banning a comminucations medium, and your a government hack? What's that saying about "Stupid is"?
Funny, but one of the things that the MODS at ATS say is "NO one liners" Good for them. That makes sense. Isn't that all twitter is? A chance to issue a one liner that is gonna give you massive case of foot in mouth disease? I'm guilty too! Have had my ATS posts get the mods on my behind, and I deserved it! I think twitter will make a comeback in Turkey. Now, if they want to ban "Real Housewives of Ankara", I only have one thing to say. What took you so long !

EU and US officials will soon come to his aid. Nothing to see here.
