| 2014-04-04 |
| [ONLINE.WSJ] Two weeks after banning Twitter Inc. TWTR -4.75% ahead of crucial local elections, Turkey on Thursday lifted its block on the micro-blogging site after the country's top court ruled the ban was unconstitutional. Turkey's Telecommunications Board, or TIB, announced on its website in late afternoon that the ban would be lifted. The restoration occurred in increments across the country, one of Twitter's top 10 markets with over 12 million users, with many people still employing technical workarounds to access the site late into the evening. |
