as I am not in turkey and the content is not illegal in my country why do I have to receive the censorship as well?
[EDIT] If facebook is advocating the freedom of speech I would expect that they would show the content at least to the users that are not under censorship.
- pdabbadabba 12y agoI think this is a fair question, though it has little to do with the jurisdiction of Turkish courts. There are two very different possible answers: it could be that the Turkish order requires photos to be removed, not just hidden from Turkish users or it could be that Facebook isn't set up to hide content in some regions and not others -- censoring the images in only a few jurisdictions would take work. If it's the former, I think there's no sense in being annoyed with Facebook. We should direct our ire at the Turkish court. If it's the latter, though, perhaps people are right to call Facebook out for not making this happen.
