Turkey blocks Twitter in run-up to election

“The international community can say this, can say that. I don’t care at all. Everyone will see how powerful the Republic of Turkey is,”

Umm… Your nation state is fighting with, and apparently not winning against, an internet company with core competence in moving text snippets and gulling investors into paying real money for Magic Web 2.0 Value.

That’s what we in the reality-based-community call ‘pathetic’. Also, guys, DNS-based blocking? And totally forgetting that Twitter was originally designed as it was specifically for SMS and not making arrangements on the telco side? Terminal noob.
