@Marko :) The Turkish government only enforces porn censorship on the big three ISPs; Turk Telekom (state owned), Superonline (state owned) and Vodafone. Sometimes they threaten bandwidth restrictions for sites/platforms like X and TikTok if they refuse to cooperate. Other than that, there is no censorship that I'm aware of.

Here is the thing, even if Turk Telekom installs the Internet infrastructure, nobody has to choose it. There are more than a hundred ISP companies we can choose and there is no government or any kind of censorship at all. I can access all the porn, torrents, any sites or services without a problem.
And the government won't find those ISPs that don't practice law? Well, that's weird.

I'm asking because Freedom House classified Turkey's internet as not free and apparently, 712.000 websites were blocked in 2022. From 2017 to 2020, Wikipedia was blocked with DPI inspection technology. And I really find it hard to believe only state owned ISPs were blocking it.

Verizon 5G Home Internet

You get one big gateway and it connects to any 5G tower one way and connects all devices via 6GHz Wi-Fi or 2.5 Gbps Ethernet ports the other way. It's using a Snapdragon X65 so it has 5G aggregation. You get a true residential IPv4 and IPv6 address, no CNAT. In real life, I can't tell the difference. Pages load just as fast. If I download something it's finished downloading faster than I can open the Downloads folder. Best solution in my apartment complex because there have been no Fiber upgrades yet or any time soon but all the big companies decided to heavily invest in 5G home internet in my area so almost everybody has Verizon, T-Mobile or At&t 5G Internet. All of them are C-band now, not even mmWave which could be even faster.

It's one of those things that make you realize you are living in 2024. Wireless Internet in my neighborhood is now better than wired Internet and the gap is widening because it's widely popular and costs companies less to upgrade 5G towers than to lay down fiber lines to every building.
