Turkey Overreacts Yet Again: Bans All Of Blogspot Because Of Copyright Infringement On A Few Blogs

"We've discussed at length Turkey's absolutely ridiculous bans on YouTube and Google sites due to a single example of content that the government doesn't like. Now it appears to be doing it again.

The Turkish government has now banned all of Google's blog hosting operation, Blogspot, because there are a few blogs out there that are embedding or linking to streaming versions of satellite TV provider Digiturk's TV shows.

This is not the first time that the government has >banned Blogspot over the identical issue. It didn't work last time, why does anyone think it makes sense this time around?"
