The problem of access block to you tube from turkey

Access to YouTube was first blocked in 2007 by the İstanbul 1st Criminal Court of Peace because of videos that contained insults to the person of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. When YouTube removed the content from its website, access was granted once more. However, similar videos were uploaded to YouTube again in 2008, therefore the ban was reinstated, and a Turkish prosecutor announced that as long as the offensive videos were not removed completely from YouTube's global database, the ban would remain and this restriction also continue . As YouTube has no official representation in Turkey, these calls to remove the videos have not been resolved.
