On Thursday, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said during a pre-election talk "we will uproot the TWitter and the like and I don't care at all what she has to say international community. Everyone will realize the power of the Turkish Republic».
"Twitter" is one of the social means through which recorded phone calls have been leaking for a while now talks both of Ertnogan himself, and of his relatives and associates.
The management company, the Twitter media Inc., announced on Thursday that looks at reports that this service has been banned in Turkey.
The company has posted a message to its services advising Twitter users in Turkey that they can send Tweets they want using text messaging through their mobile phone.
Twitter users in Turkey reported extensive breaks in the early hours of Friday, a few hours after Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has threatened to close the well-known social media platform.
Some users are trying to open the Twitter.com website but they are seeing an announcement apparently from Turkey's Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TIB).
The statement cited four court rulings as a basis for blocking the site, from where some users have been recording Erdogan's own telephone conversations over the last few weeks, as well as relatives of his associates and associates.
