Instagram users in Turkey found access to the social media network blocked for a second day on Saturday, following censorship accusations against the US company from a government official. The BTK communications authority announced on its website on Friday that the Meta-owned platform had been frozen, without giving any reason. Transport and Infrastructure Minister Abdulkadir Uraloglu said on Friday Instagram had ignored government demands for it to remove certain posts.
