According this
article, Turkey has lifted its
two year ban on
YouTube caused by videos portraying the
country's founder in a negative light. The man in charge of Internet issues within the country, Mr. Yildirim, said there was no more need for the ban because the insulting videos have been removed.
Insulting the founder of Turkey or anything Turkey related is
illegal in that country. Many Turks criticized to ban of YouTube, including the president of Turkey who asked officials to find a solution. Speaking on television, Mr. Yildirim said the ban was lifted after "
common sense prevailed,"and he hopes people have learned from this experience so it will never happen again.
