By Abdulkadir Uraloglu here This statement made in the video is important, because since yesterday, Instagram and Roblox have been TikTok, YouTube And Discord There are claims that platforms such as will be shut down. Abdulkadir Uraloğlu recently made the following statement about the Instagram ban: he said: “Our approach to the social media platform that we all use, which has nearly 60 million users in our country, has never been from a prohibitive perspective. We do not have an approach based on “We will shut down whatever they do or behave”. The point that should not be overlooked is that unfortunately these platforms do not display the democratic approach that we, as a country, display. We are always in communication with all platforms. Our wish is for them to continue their activities. But of course we will be following up on the sensitivities of our society and country, which we call catalogue crimes.”

The Minister of National Education of the Republic of Turkey, Yusuf Tekin, also spoke about the ban today. Minister Yusuf Tekin said exactly the following: he said: “In today’s digital age, the safety and healthy development of our children are more important than ever. In addition to our schools, teachers and educational environments, social media platforms are also particularly effective in the development of our children. As a ministry, we are taking various measures to protect our children from the dangers they may encounter in the digital world and to prevent digital addiction. In recent years, social media platforms and online games have taken up a large portion of our children’s time.
These platforms can host content that can negatively affect the social, academic and psychological development of our students. Especially popular platforms such as Instagram and Roblox can cause our children to be dragged into digital addiction and encounter uncontrolled content that we can call digital fascism. There is no doubt that it is essential for digital media platforms to respect universal law, domestic law and our responsibilities for the future. Let’s not forget that it is our common responsibility to protect our children from the #DigitalFascism of social media tools. We must all say #StopDigitalFascism together!”
