Maybe Turks appoint the Judiciary by means of general election? {#emotions_dlg.unsure}

Quoting lemon

 

 

lets say that my knoweledge on jusridiction and legislation is limited. Yet a question sneaks in: How do the voters punish the law makers? By which law and by what actions or legal proceedings? You see, I for the first time now hear that voters can punish the law makers in the elections. Am I missing something?

 

Nobody can dare to do something. Why should one think of aborting a law that punishes those who swear at Atatürk? Are you crasy or something?{#emotions_dlg.rant}

I cannot imagine anyone saying let´s abort that law, in the first place. If that happens I cannot imagine what would happen later. If nothing happens until elections then voters would punish it.

Finally, in the end, our search engine is coming along:

http://www.millimotor.com/default.aspx

 

 

Millimotor translates as ´nationalengine´

instead of ´I´m felling lucky´, we have our own ´I am feeling clever, swift and ethical´; when you click on ´millitube-means nationaltube-´ link it says ´we are watching all the videos one by one, we will let you know when any of them approved´

Hilarious.. lol

Well done! Maybe in a year from now we´ll hear about Turkey having their own Internet, just like China does

 

On a serious note: I think it´s good that a country supports national products. It´s just promoting the unhealthy competition (by banning other service providers) that doesn´t seem right to me. Oh well, who am I to judge? The biggest internet provider in Ireland (Eircome) warned they´d refuse service to people accused of using file sharing sites, esp torrents. There´s a 3 strike rule lol If they consider your web activity suspicious, they warn you 3 times and then disconnect you

Google translate appears to be working ´normally´ again.  TLC must wield more power than we ever realised! lol

Google demand an appoinment from Turkey.

 

Transportation and communication minister Binali Yıldırım said that Google demanded an appointment to discuss the banning of the site in Turkey.

Upon the question "What kind of agreement can be reached with Google?", the minister said "We didn´t ask for any agreement, we say that they have to do this, this and this, We are not in a position for bargaining, They have to know about Turkish laws, They have to register as a tax payer in Turkey, they have to release a local version of their products in Turkey, They have to have an address in Turkey so that we can find them if need be".
