Turkey blocks instant messaging platform Discord

Turkey has blocked access to instant messaging platform Discord following a court decision, the country's infotech regulator said on Wednesday.
Turkey's Information Technologies and Communication Authority (BTK) published the access ban decision on its website.
Turkish Justice Minister Yilmaz Tunc said a court in the capital Ankara decided to remove access from Turkey to San Francisco-based Discord due to sufficient suspicion that the crimes of "child sexual abuse and obscenity" have been committed.
