| - Eww... that\'s not nice. :( | |

| - WHAT!!!! AGAIN!!! I\'m getting tired of getting cut off the Turkish media like that. :( But seriously, this is horrible, mainly because YouTube is the perfect place for people to get connected and express themselves, and the second is the fact this this decision shows weakness since it\'s banned only from one side of the dispute so that makes the other come out as a winner without resolving the main issue, and also it is a huge slap on the face to the freedom of speech which will be a problem in the future and you know what I\'m implying here, I hope this is just a temporary decision unlike the MegaUpload ban... I\'m sorry if I offended anyone here, I really didn\'t mean to. :) | |

| - I also hope this ban is not permanent! www.youtubeyasagi.com At the site above, they try to collect 1.000.000 signatures and i hope they will get it! | |

| - I hope it works, sometimes petitions work, but mostly they dont... I say iyi şanslar. :) Till then, which alternative service will be mainly used by Turks?!! | |
| Osman | Friday 09th of March 2007 12:07:51 PM |
| - There are lots of alternatives. international: metacafe, dailymotion etc. local: trtube, pikniktube blabla What makes people nervous is their accounts on youtube. Otherwise youtube is not \'that\' different from other services. Just that it sucks more. Lots of hate speech and insults every day.. They should find some more editors maybe. | |
