This has always been Twitter's policy, right? They comply with the local laws.

And what law is there in Turkey, that opponents have to be blocked from social media? (maby you are also just sarcastic.?)
Not being sarcastic, just making a guess. I know nothing about Turkey's legal system.
Thanks for clarification. But in any authoritarian regime, there is a legal system and seperated from that there is what police accepts.
So when Elon Musk would legitimate these blocks with regard to the law, there needs to be a law in place to base it on.
I think following the law is standing with the people in a democracy. But whatever police, that is acting independent from these laws, are no friend of the people. Then they are the enemy.
Opposition is charged for cooperation with terrorists. So...
But someone would need to be convicted on a personal level, that freedom can be taken. To my knowledge none of the blocked users are convicted.
i don't know many details either. But ss far as i know it is not the first time something like that happens in Turkyie.
It is the decision of Elon Musk, blocking people and their post on twitter. It is not happening in turkey. It is happening in the USA.
ah you were talking about twitter x. Yes of course. There is no chance to expect freedom of spech with such platforms like twitter x and guys like Elon Musk.
Yes. Since I am not commenting the obvious, that Erdogan is acting totally illegitimate to defend his power.
But to argue once again, that Elon Musk is just saying things without responsibility for what he says. He just tells what people want to hear. Same with DOGE, X, Tela, SpaceX, Grok. Elon Musk is a simple advertiser without innovating anything.
I just need to say this, since too many uncritical people still see him as an innovator, on which there is no prove. Or not that I have seen it yet.
