Re: [liberationtech] internet blackout in turkey?
I heard rumors, on reddit so take this with a grain of salt, that power was being cut off to neighborhoods with protests. As for the capacity to cutoff Internet, I suspect every country to have a contingency for that. -Andrew On Jun 1, 2013, at 10:51 PM, hc voigt sozw...@gmail.com wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Everything that is coming through along the hashtags #occupygezi or #direngezipark? is coming from outside Istanbul and lacks any new infos and pictures from within the city; or even from within turkey.

Good day everyone, Le 01/06/2013 12:50, hc voigt a écrit : Everything that is coming through along the hashtags #occupygezi or #direngezipark? is coming from outside Istanbul and lacks any new infos and pictures from within the city; or even from within turkey. After having done so last night, I'm again observing for quite some time now again via twazzup, tumblr, g+, diaspora, ? and it looks to me like we face a complete Internet Blackout in/from Turkey. I am not sure to what extent the blackout is complete. A message was addressed to telecomix earlier on: http://pastebin.com/Y9iJTWEP I'd say they've cut GSM access as well as broadband in some areas, and possibly increased blockade of some particular websites at country level. Would be nice to get more details, though. Does turkey posses the technology, means and skills for that? Country internet infrastructure is centralized by governmetn-controlled Turk Telecom. They already do website blockade, iirc based on keywords. So I think we can assume they have modern enough equipment to perform blocking and surveillance. Best, KheOps -- Too many emails?

Re: [liberationtech] internet blackout in turkey?
We have reports from inside Taksim that yesterday 3G was unavailable in Taksim itself, but telephony was fine. Simple moving to a street near Taksim would reestablish 3G connectivity. It´s unclear if this is intentional or simply the network being overloaded. Also people seem to be removing password protection from wifi access points near Taksim to facilitate connectivity. Webcams overlooking Taksim have been down since yesterday, and as of today webcams overlooking Istiklal (big street leading up to Taksim) are also down. http://tks.ibb.gov.tr/ - Ruben On 06/01/2013 01:46 PM, Andrew Lewis wrote: I heard rumors, on reddit so take this with a grain of salt, that power was being cut off to neighborhoods with protests.

Hey, The Renesys report from Nov 2012 provides some info: http://www.renesys.com/blog/2012/11/could-it-happen-in-your-countr.shtml Turkey is in the 'Low risk' column (code: TR). Opinions vary though: [...] Turkey, by contrast, has numerous excellent providers (many using networks beyond their own frontiers) but, at last count, there were some 1500 or more web sites blocked. Turkey hasn't shut down the internet to date but could do so at a moment's notice for political reasons From what I've heard, 3G appears to be blocked (overload?) within Taksim, but is ok outside. Apparently people remove passwords from their wifi connections so everyone can use it.
