💨 Abstract

Turkey has blocked access to the X (formerly Twitter) account of jailed Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, a key opponent of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. A censorship tracking website reported that the account was restricted due to a legal request from Turkish authorities, citing national security concerns. Imamoglu, while in custody on corruption charges believed to be politically motivated, was nominated as his party's presidential candidate in defiance of Erdogan's long rule.
