Elon Musk’s social media platform X has suspended several opposition accounts in Turkey amidst growing civil unrest in response to the arrest of Ekrem İmamoğlu, Istanbul’s mayor. The suspended accounts were mainly grassroots activists sharing protest information. The Turkish government claims some accounts were inciting hatred, and X has significantly increased compliance with government content removal requests.
