Twitter fights Turkey ban with lawsuit over political freedom of speech

Wednesday, March 26, 2014

Caitlin McGarry / PC World: 


    Six days have passed since Turkey’s government blocked its citizens’ access to Twitter, and the network is now taking the country to court.


   Twitter on Wednesday filed suit against the government over the wholesale ban. The network said the Turkish government’s reasons for silencing Twitter are grounded in three court orders, two of which are related to content that Twitter had already decided violated its own terms and conditions. That content has already been removed. Twitter also argued that Turkey never provided the company with those court orders before instituting the ban.
