I'm re-locating to Turkey in the upcoming months (due to unrelated circumstances), and whilst there, I intend on starting, and keeping, a regular blog about current events, human rights issues, the EU bid, and such. Photojournalism, where appropriate - and available - will also be included. So, I suppose I have a few questions. (long post, my apologies!) [more inside]

Adult magazines and pay cable channels can now show more. Did the laws change, did society change, or both? [more inside]

I am looking for information, books, essays about free speech on the Net, type EFF or Godwin's "Cyber Rights: Defending Free Speech in the Digital Age", but from a more European point of view. (Or is this stupid seeing as we're talking about the net anyway.) For example, is there an EFF type organisation based in Europe?

WhatAmIMissingFilter: I've been waiting for an optimum time to ask this on the main page in an appropriate thread, but the opportunity hasn't arisen. Thus: Exactly HOW is the government getting away with enforcing these so-called "free speech" zones? Allowing for reasonable public safety measures, it's still clearly at odds with the constitution. (I'm sure places like Planned Parenthood would dearly "love" to relocate protesters to a deserted roped-off area 6 blocks away.) Is it just that no one has called them on it yet?
