Wordpress.com Banned in Turkey
People trying to visit WordPress.com from Turkey are seeing this message: “Access to this site has been suspended in accordance with decision no: 2007/195 of T.C. Fatih 2.Civil Court of First Instance.” I didn’t realize Turkey had a great firewall like China. This is really unfortunate because we have a really passionate Turkish community that gets about 12 million pageviews a month. Any good tips for people to get around the block?
I never heard that bans like that were happening in Turkey, although I read somewhere that Youtube was banned inTurkey for a few days as well.
For the moment the best tip for them would be the use of a free proxy server although it’s never the best solution.
Let’s hope that this will be something temporary and bloggers from Turkey will be free to use Wordpress.com soon…
