Update: the ban was lifted on the 24th.
YouTube has been shut down in Turkey again.
Just like I reported last March, the government here has again taken offense at a video uploaded somewhere by who knows who from who knows where, and in retaliation denies us access to the entire site. I guess that by watching videos we are abettors to the crime.
Sort of like banning newspapers when one commits libel. But who's worse, the government for its draconian measures, or Google for caving in and deleting wanton free speech (which they will do, eventually)?
