Sözcü TV covered the access-blocking decision targeting Mabel Matiz’s song “Perperişan”, drawing on an EngelliWeb announcement.
The broadcast reported that, upon the request of the Ministry of Family and Social Services, access to the song’s URLs on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Music had been blocked under Article 8/A of Law No. 5651. At the time of the broadcast, the platforms had not yet withheld the content from view in Türkiye.
The decision was discussed as a recent example of pressure on artists and artistic expression. Further details are available in the EngelliWeb announcement.
