New Turkish Internet Scandal : Imdb.com
Category: Other, Weird News
We had recently talked about how Wordpress was banned. This time, we achieved to get the Oscar. Recently, Turkish singer, actor and later director Mahsun Kirmizigul applied to them claiming that his film Beyaz Melek (White Angel) is being distributed illegally on several torrent websites including IMDB ! Can you imagine IMDB as an illegal torrent site? Anyway, the courts make such ban decisions and Turk Telekom applies. It is told that the very talented tech. guys of Turk Telekom banned imbd.com instead of imdb.com with the intention of banning IMDB. Imbd : This is just a parked domain name taking advantage of IMDB. We should ask several questions here.
1) Don’t they have an idea of what Imdb.com is?
2) Do they have right to cut the access to every website they don’t like?
3) What is next? Google? Yahoo? Blogger? Microsoft ????????
4) Millions of people are paying them for Internet service, are these people stupid to pay?
6) Let’s learn again the difference on domain names, please: imdb.com and imbd.com are different. OK?
