The summary of 2-day-Turkey

For 2 days, Turkey has been agitated by the new dictatorial application of the current regime. Because twitter spread lots of diadvantageous information in terms of the current rightist power, twitter was banned without any legal base. As a response, turkish people found thousands of mobile applications and DNS&proxies to open twitter. To answer to that solution of the turkish people, thw power banned the use of google dns and couple of others as well. This ironic cyber battle will keep going until march 31, the date of national elections. Although i am cynical about it, i hope sincerely that the results will be just. It is funny to know that the country that i was born, that i want to spend the rest of my life in, the country that i love, is just as censored and isolated from the world as is north korea, which happens to be the only country that could close twitter completely within its range. It is so sad to acknowledge that fact, but these last 2 days proved it as it seems.
