Turkish academics to fight Twitter and Facebook ban in court

Turkey has taken a tough stance on social media under President Tayyip Erdogan and the ruling AK Party he founded. Both Twitter and video-sharing service YouTube were inaccessible for hours on Monday after a Turkish court ordered the removal of images of a prosecutor held at gunpoint by far-left militants. Facebook said it had complied with the court order and appeared to have avoided the ban.
