ANKARA — The long awaited decision on lifting the ban on the video sharing website, YouTube has been lifted on Tuesday. The decision is binding and the website has been opened to access.
Turkey's telecommunications authority announced an "administrative" ban on access to YouTube on March 27 after a leaked recording of a security meeting of highranking officials appeared on the site, saying the ban would be maintained until the website removed all legally questionable content.
In early April, a court opted to end the ban in a decision overturned by another court on the grounds that the website still hosted the legally questionable content.
