Turkey Bars Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube for Macabre Media



(Digital Marketing Agency) – Three tech giants Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube are temporary banned from Turkey after distributing images of a Turkish prosecutor murdered by leftist militants during a hostage standoff last week.
The sites were inaccessible for many users in Turkey, with the Hurriyet newspaper saying that service providers got an order from prosecutors to block Twitter, Facebook and YouTube along with other 163 websites who published the images, BGR reports.
Last month, Turkish parliament authorized decree that the government could order an immediate blockage of website without prior judicial authorization which resulted in outrage both at home and abroad.
