The TurkeyBlocks monitoring network has detected restrictions on access to multiple social media services Facebook, Twitter and YouTube throughout Turkey beginning Friday Nov 04 2016 1:20AM local time, ongoing as of Friday noon.
Restrictions on messaging services WhatsApp, Skype and Instagram have also now been detected, validating widespread user complaints about WhatsApp service failure in Turkey – the first time nationwide restrictions have been detected on the popular messaging apps in recent years.
The incident is believed to be related to the detention of multiple leaders of opposition political party HDP, accompanied by raids of the HDP headquarters in Ankara.
Such a sad turn of events for such a wonderful country.

Censorship is indeed always a horrible act, even in the best of circumstances (and Turkey's circumstances at present are far from the best) -- an act that George Bernard Shaw described so aptly as "a mild form of assassination". My heart goes out to those caught up in all this.
As well as highlighting the illegitimacy of any regime that makes use of censorship, perhaps this also highlights the need to educate the people (not just in Turkey, but around the world) that the Internet is (and indeed computer networks in general are) so much more than just the web and "apps".
Perhaps this might be an opportune time to (re?-)launch a Constantinople UUCP Users Group or some such thing...
It strikes me that a totally decentralised network, coupled with strong encryption (available everywhere these days) may be exactly what's needed to combat these sorts of pathetic attacks on civilian communication. Of course that's next to useless unless the vast majority of people actually use it.

The thought of watching his sister screw excited Justin. She was a cute
girl, blonde with big blue eyes and a cute smile. She had had sex before,
and he always wondered what it would be like watching her do it. He had seen
her naked a couple of times, and promptly jacked off after each time. He and
Scott both were virgins, but it looked like Scotty was gonna get his first.
All the girls liked Scott. He had brown hair and eyes and was a cross
between Scott Baio and the Karate Kid. So as they got ready for bed on the
fateful night, he watched as Scott stripped down to his shorts and lay on
the covers of the guest bed. He knew his sister would be in shortly after
the lights were out and he had pretended to go to sleep as they had planned.
Scotty was a little startled when the girl got in bed with him, but calmed
as she said, "He's asleep. No one will know," as she stroked the bulge in
his shorts, she put her hand beneath the elastic and grabbed his cock. She
pulled his shorts down to his knees and straddled him as he lay on his back.
Expertly, she placed his swollen prick on the opening of her hole and
settled onto it, feeling in sink deeper into her cunt. Scotty instinctively
pumped as she moved up and down on his rod. She was wearing only a long tee
shirt with nothing under it. As the two kids stroked, Justin watched,
stroking his own cock under the covers. Soon Janet was on her back with her
legs wide apart and through the dim night light he watched the cheeks of his
friend's ass gather dimples as he pumped his sister's cunt. Soon, with a
groan of ecstasy, Scott shot his virgin load deep into Janet's cunt as she
squirmed in orgasm. Hot, sticky white cum was streaming down the crack of
her ass as they continued to pump, Janet shuddering in orgasm and Scotty
making obscene slurp- ing noises as he pumped the cum drenched pussy. After
his sister had gone back to her bedroom, Justin said to his friend Scott,
"Wow, man, that was great! I watched the whole thing!" Scott replied "Too
bad she's your sister. I see you are stroking your cock...I can imagine how
horny that must have make you. Let me help." Scott came over to Justin's
bed, still naked and his cock sticky with cum. He pulled back the covers to
reveal Justin's hard cock and looked his friend over, remarking how much he
looked like his sister. He gently cupped his friends balls and with the
other hand stroked his smooth, round ass letting his finger play around
Justin's asshole. "My cousin put it in my ass once and it didn't feel too
bad...since you set me up with your sister, I'll let you do it too." With
that, Scotty lay on his back next to Justin and spread his legs wide apart.
With a hand on each cheek, he opened his asshole to give the boy access.
Justin eagerly en- tered the ass that he watched a few minutes before as it
fucked his sister. Screwing Scotty would be better than just jacking off. As
he sank his cock in Scott's butt, he realized what it was that got his
sister all hot. Scotty was cute. He pumped his friend faster now as he
thought about his sister and, not being able to hold back anymore, dumped
his load in hot gushes deep into Scotty's ass. As Scotty felt the blonde
13-year-old release the cum inside him, he continued to stroke his cock,
releasing his load all over Justin's belly. The two boys lay side by side,
their sexual urges temporarily relieved, not realizing that Janet had
watched her brother screw his friend. She never realized her brother was so
horny or that his ass was so cute...now she wanted him to fuck her too! It
was raining hard outside and Justin and Janet were home from school for a
holiday. 13-year-old Justin was laying in bed stroking his cock thinking
about how his 15-year-old slut sister had fucked his friend right there in
that room - on those sheets - there was still dried cum on them where Scotty
had filled her hole to overflow. Suddenly, the room lit up and the crashing
sound of thunder closely followed. Janet came running into the room and
hopped under the covers with her brother. "I'm scared!" she said. "Shit!"
thought Justin, who was getting to the point of shooting his load before the
thunder came -- he had wanted to finish jacking off. His jockey shorts were
still pulled down around his hips and his cock was still erect, now resting
against the tee-shirt that Janet wore to bed. "Ohhhh...I think my little
brother was jerking off, " reaching to feel his stiff cock, she continued,
"yes...he was. Maybe his sister can help him out!" She pulled down the
covers. Justin lay on his back, his cute round ass pressed against the
sheets, his stiff cock erectly protruding from a sparse patch of pubescent
golden hair. Janet pulled off her shirt to show her pretty, round developing
breasts. She squirmed out of her pan- ties to reveal her moist slit. Justin
stared at her speechless as she said "I guess that brothers and sisters are
not supposed to do it with each other, but you are so cute and I am so
horny. As long as you're careful not to get me pregnant...I don't see any
harm." With that she straddled her brother and guided his stiff cock into
her moist slit. As she looked down at him, smiling, she began her familiar
fucking motion, tightening the muscles of her pussy around his cock as she
moved up and down. Justin pumped in rhythmic motion, holding on to the buns
of his sister's ass. "Ohhh...I want you. Fuck me, little brother. I'll do
anything you say -- I'm your whore," moaned Janet as she continued to hump
and screw. Janet shuddered in wave after wave of orgasm. "oh, Jan...I'm
gonna squirt!" yelled Justin as he felt the cum rushing from his balls. "No,
wait!" said Janet hurriedly as she got off of her brother, turned around,
and buried her face in his crotch. Justin's cock was pounding as she put it
in her mouth and stroked in hard and fast. He released his load in gushes --
wave after wave of his hot white cum going into his sister's
mouth...dripping down her chin and back on to his belly. Janet's legs were
spread in front of his face and as he shot off, he fingered his sister's
hole. When he had shot the last of his sperm into his sister's face, she
turned and smiled, cum still dripping from her chin. "Let's rest and do it
some more!"

I don't think it is an opportune time to launch any $technical_solution_to_bypass_censorship. It is my opinion that if such solution is not already in place, and has not been used by many, many people on daily basis even though there was no censorship to bypass, switching to such solution now is not feasible, and could only serve to highlight its adopters to those doing the censorship.
