One press organization and two internet law experts have filed two complaints today against the ban Twitter at Turkey.
The Union of Turkish Journalists, a very large organization after listing 3.300 members, filed a complaint with an Ankara court, while two online lawyers have questioned the ban in Turkey's Constitutional Court, as reported for the first time by the New York Times .
Both complaints argue that the ban violates the right to freedom of information, which is protected by the Turkish Constitution and European Convention on Human Rights.

Turkey blocked the social network on Thursday, but it seems that Turkish users of the social network have found ways to bypass the block.
On Sunday, the Turkish government responded by blocking IP social networking, and DNS of Google, but Turkish users still use Twitter via Virtual Private Networks and the Tor network.
