Yandex - no longer to be found in Turkey
The "Russian Google" is withdrawing from the country. It is apparently reacting to new Turkish laws which, according to critics, are intended to control government opponents on the Internet.
The Russian Internet provider Yandex is apparently withdrawing from Turkey. As the Turkish business site Marketing Türkiye reports, the digital giant, which is considered the Russian answer to Google, will close its Istanbul office. An official confirmation from Yandex is still pending. Turkish media, however, reported that the company will close its office on October 1, lay off employees and conduct business in Turkey from Russia.
The Russian company is thus likely to react to the new Turkish digital legislation, which will come into force in the fall and will force providers of digital services to control the use of Internet platforms much more than before. According to the new law, platforms with more than one million users in the country will have to register with their own branch. They are thus subject to Turkish law and are liable. At the same time they will be forced to register the identities of their users. In addition, platform operators are to be forced to delete postings that are classified as untrue or offensive.
