Blocks on the Tor Network: The Definition of Censorship. THE Erdogan πρόεδρος της Τουρκίας μετά την "κατάργηση" του μαθήματος των Χριστουγέννων φέρεται να προσπαθεί να αποκόψει κάθε φωνή στο διαnetwork.
The Turkish authorities are implementing new measures to restrict freedom of speech and the media.
Watchdog group Turkey Blocks reports that the anonymous Tor Network (Tor Network) has now been blocked, following similar tactics last month aimed at blocking access to VPN services and some Social Networks across the country.
Unlike previous cases of censorship that took place after specific events, this particular move by the Erdogan government appears to be aimed at blocking the free Internet for finding unbiased news for no reason other than perhaps the government's desperate efforts to stay in power.

Social networks and Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp and YouTube have been blocked since last month.
In October, access to Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive and GitHub was denied access to an email from Berat Albayrak, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources (President Erdogan's Groom), leaked to the Internet.
Correspondence is believed to expose Erdogan.
