We believe that global, non-fragmented frameworks protect online communities and their rights and enable them to experience the Internet the same way around the world.. In addition, in an open and competitive environment, small companies can not only work with the largest companies, but also thrive.

In our ongoing efforts to provide services in Turkey, we have closely examined the recently amended Internet Law No. 5651.. We decided to create a legal entity to ensure that Twitter remains available to anyone who uses it in Turkey.

In coming to this decision, we were guided by our core mission: to advocate for open, public conversation and to ensure our service is available to people everywhere.

We are committed to protecting the voices and data of people using Twitter in Turkey. We will continue to be transparent about how we handle requests from government and law enforcement.

Twitter is built on freedom of expression and we respect people’s right to express their universal opinions online. We have a designated human rights function at Twitter and hold our processes, product and policies accountable – as always, we and will enforce our rules in an impartial and rational manner.

Protecting public conversation in Turkey is helping people access it. We will continue to work to strengthen and defend our values.
