We have been demanding the same sensitivity and fair stance since the beginning. We want the safe, clean and fair content mechanism that these platforms offer in countries where they comply with the rules to be valid in Turkey as well. This double standard applied by providers is a common problem for the entire world. Let’s remember; we said, come open representative offices in our country and prevent the rights violations of our people. They did not want to come. They did not take the necessary steps against the crimes reported to them. We said, let’s build a cleaner internet together and let our people find someone to talk to, but they did some show business with some virtual offices. We prevented all these backstabbing with the changes we made in the law. We see that they are still trying to maintain the same understanding. They say, “I read what I know, I publish what I want, I don’t publish what I want.” We did not accept this, and we will not accept it. We will do whatever it takes to establish a cleaner and safer social media environment that respects our values, is free of disinformation.” Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Abdulkadir Uraloğlu said, “Our country has values ​​and sensitivities. Despite our warnings, they did not take the catalogue crimes into consideration. We have imposed an access ban. We are in contact with the Turkish representative, we will lift the access ban as soon as they fix the deficiencies we have indicated.” said.
