I was wondering out loud today if YouTube's common "This content not available for your device" was against Net Neutrality laws. Title II in the U.S. having nothing at all to do with the UK, I wonder if blocking certain devices or areas amounts to a very, very slow lane for some people and is therefore illegal.
This made me have the same thought again. Can blocking the country you come from be anything but against net neutrality?
"For more than 160 years, Timisoara was controlled directly by the sultan."
This is probably an overlooked detail in the eyes of many which are not acquainted with Ottoman history. Not many parts of current Romania were directly controlled by (Ottoman) Turks, as in obeying turkish laws, having mosques in place, or having nothing more than administrative autonomy. Territories all around Romania have not enjoyed such status. It's mind blowing!
