In 2014, Turkish President Recep Erdogan did exactly that, vowing to “wipe out” the social network after corruption allegations about his administration were shared on the platform. Twitter’s decision to block certain content in Turkey the day before its presidential election was wrong, says the founder of Wikipedia. Wikipedia was also banned in Turkey for almost three years after refusing to delete articles that criticised the government. Turkey’s election will be decided in a run-off later this month, after no clear winner emerged from this weekend’s voting. Should we expect tweeter ban in Turkey after elections ?
