In response to a satirical video that was offensive to the memory of Atatürk, the founder of modern Turkey, a Turkish court <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070310/ap_on_hi_te/turkey_youtube_3">shut down</a> any access to YouTube.com. The offending video was uploaded supposedly by Greeks wanting to antagonize their neighbors, and it prompted a war of offensive and counter offensive videos and endless (and pointless) comments.&nbsp; It is against the law here to insult Atatürk, but since the offenders were "out there" somewhere beyond prosecution on the Internet, punishment was levied on Turkish Internet users instead. </p> <p>The story is even sadder as I remember attending a conference in Athens last fall with several Turkish colleagues, and we were pleasantly surprised at the warmth of so many Greeks, including several who spoke with us in Turkish.</p></div></p><p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="http://groups.diigo.com/independent-school-collaboration/bookmark/tag/21stcentury">21stcentury</a> <a href="http://groups.diigo.com/independent-school-collaboration/bookmark/tag/socialnetworking">socialnetworking</a> </p><p><strong>Posted by:</strong> <a href="http://groups.diigo.com/independent-school-collaboration/bookmark/sarahhanawald">sarahhanawald</a></p> Thu, 24 Apr 2008 12:24:41 -0000
