The 22.5 million Turkish members of Facebook may lose access to the popular social-networking site as a result of a court case filed by an opposition leader. Though Kemal Kiliçdaroglu  (leader of CHP) and his party say they only want offensive content removed, a government minister has hinted Facebook may follow YouTube onto the banned-sites list .

I saw in the other sources that "allegedly  CHP and AKP agreed on this ban". 

What can I say: Yes..do it.. So that our place can be secured next to countries  like  China, Iran which try to censure the content of internet.

It should have been done by now according to the current law (5651).

 

Who is behind most of the bans is also a subject of debate. People sympathetic to the ruling Justice and Development Party, or AKP, generally blame the CHP and nongovernmental organizations such as the Kemalist Thought Association or ADD, since most complaints come from them or their supporters. The opposition, on the other hand, puts the blame with the AKP since Law No. 5651 on Internet bans was enacted during its time in power and because the ruling party is the one with the numbers in Parliament to potentially change it.

If I believe, only 10% of 22.5 million users will use it, I will be quite happy to do the effort of writing it.. But I dont think it can be the same..

But we  can find a  name for that website :

face=yuz, book=kitap

yuzkitap.com {#emotions_dlg.lol_fast}
