Erdogan criticises social media calling 'digital fascism'
ISTANBUL - President Tayyip Erdogan fiercely criticised social media companies on Monday, saying they sought to "muzzle the Palestinian people's voices", after Turkey blocked access to Instagram last week.
"We are facing a digital fascism that has no tolerance for even the photographs of Palestinian martyrs and bans them immediately," Erdogan said, citing the killing of Haniyeh. Israel and its Western allies say Hamas is a terrorist organisation, a view rejected by predominantly Muslim Turkey, which is a NATO member.
Turkey ranks fifth in the world in terms of Instagram usage, with more than 57 million users, following India, the U.S., Brazil and Indonesia, according to data platform Statista. "Some of my customers contacted me by accessing Instagram through VPN and other social media platforms, but my chance of accessing new people and potential customers stopped," she said.
