They probably knew exactly what they were doing. The truth being mostly already out there, they probably wanted to show something like "look, it's not that bad, we are not killing them". Some sort of damage control I guess.

Setting up you own VPN with a cheap VPS has a higher chance of working but you have to be careful about your VPS provider. For example, I know that a lot of OVH owned IPs are banned from Netflix.

I never thought about this. I don't know how Istanbul manage it, there is a lot of cats but the city is quite clean for a city that size (but cleanness is also quite important in Turkish culture).

In Turkey, having free roaming cats and dogs is still very much part of the culture, and I hope it never goes away. People take care of them, and the government too, so you will almost never see a cat/dog aggressive towards human or ve
