Access block from X to Alper Temuri, the account that supports the government

Access barriers to the internet, which have gained speed and intensity recently, have begun to affect social media users close to the government when it comes to the 'fund crisis'.

Turkey has blocked access to the account known as Alper Temuri, who stands out with his posts supporting the government on the social media platform X.

Before the access ban was imposed, Temurî shared a message about the senior AKP figures involved in the fund robbery and said, "You will give back what you stole."

Recently, access to hundreds of X accounts, including news sites, journalists, various political parties and organizations, and many opposition individuals and institutions, has been blocked.

According to the data of the Freedom of Expression Association, access to 194 X accounts was blocked on September 22 due to posts about the fund crisis. At least 147 more accounts were added on September 30. The justification of "protection of national security and public order" was used in the blockings within the scope of Article 8/A of Law No. 5651.
