Η Τουρκία από σήμερα δεν έχει access on Twitter after being banned by the country's prime minister.
The official story says that Twitter ignored several court orders from Turkish judges demanding the removal of several posts that offended the government of Turkey.
Meanwhile, 12 millions of Turkish Twitter users are looking for ways to access the service. This can be done in a variety of ways, and some of them are for any form of censorship that may come from some not so democratic government.
Tweet via SMS

A Tweet has revealed a very simple way for Turkish service users to publish tweets.
Turkish users can send their tweets using SMS to 2444 for those who have Vodafone and 2555 for Turkcell users, along with the word “START.”
Using a VPN
Another solution (and not only for Turkish users) is to use a VPN. The Virtual Private Network allows a computer to send and receive data over networks as if it were directly connected to the private network. VPNs make your computer appear to be connected to a completely different network from another country, thus allowing you to bypass any kind of censorship.
There are many free VPNs στο διαδίκτυο, αν και θα πρέπει να είσαστε προσεκτικοί καθώς μπορεί να περιέχουν κακόβουλο λογισμικό.
An easy way to find a VPN that really works is to choose a browser with a VPN tool such as Hola Better Internet for Chrome or Anonymox for Firefox.
Change your DNS
Another option is to change your DNS. Google's free DNS is a reliable alternative that you can constantly use. Instructions are available at Google's website is pretty easy to follow.
