In 2009 in Turkey, following a regional Turkish court ruling (Denizli Criminal Court of First Instance), all websites hosted on Google Sites were blocked in [[:Category:Turkey|Turkey]].  This was following a reaction after a [https://Sites.Google.com/site/kemalizminkarinagrisi/benimhikayem/atauerk-koessi/at Google Sites page] included an alleged insult of {{W|Mustafa Kemal Atatürk}}, the founder of Turkey.  Subsequently, in 2012 the {{W|European Court of Human Rights}} (ECHR) ruled this blocking of Google Sites a breach of {{W|Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights}} (''Yildirim v Turkey'' – 3111/10 – HEJUD [2012] ECHR 2074).<ref>[https://www.1COR.com 1 Crown Office Row] (16 January 2013); [https://UKHumanRightsBlog.com/2013/01/16/turkish-block-on-google-site-breached-article-10-rights-rules-strasbourg Turkish block on Google site breached Article 10 rights, rules Strasbourg]; ''UKHumanRightsBlog.com''; UK Human Rights Blog, Temple, [[:Category:London|London]], EC4Y 7HH; retrieved 12 July 2021.</ref><ref>[https://www.BAILII.org/eu/cases/ECHR/2012/2074.html European Court of Human Rights – AFFAIRE AHMET YILDIRIM c.
