Youtube removed videos and Turkey lifts ban

Posted by Martin in The Web  TAGS in The Web

Youtube decided to remove the videos that had been posted on the site earlier on which led to the complete ban of the website ordered by a Turkish court. The main question that arises from the series of events is of course if Youtube made the right decision by removing the video in question. Or to bring this into a broader perspective: Should a website give in to the demands of a third party to remove content because it might be considered offensive to that party ?

It began with the ban of the Russian website allofmp3 by the internet provider Perspektiv. The Piratebay decided to ban users of the provider from accessing their website as a response of the ban against allofmp3. Guess what, Perspektiv announced today that they lifted the ban of the Russian website and the Piratebay in turn decided to lift their ban as well.
