The X account of EngelliWeb, a project run by Turkey’s Freedom of Expression Association (İFÖD) that monitors and documents internet access restrictions in Turkey, has been blocked. 

İFÖD announced the development on October 1, 2026. İfade Özgürlüğü Derneği
EngelliWeb tracks access restrictions imposed on websites, news content, social media accounts and other online material in Turkey. The project also documents the legal grounds for these restrictions and archives information about the institutions or courts responsible for the decisions. Bianet

İFÖD said that the EngelliWeb X account had been subject to an access-blocking decision, but the account had not yet been withheld from users in Turkey by X itself. The court that issued the decision and its legal basis had not yet been disclosed at the time of the announcement. İfade Özgürlüğü Derneği

The development has drawn attention because EngelliWeb itself is a project specifically focused on documenting online access restrictions in Turkey. Its archive currently includes numerous cases involving blocked X accounts and other online content. İfade Özgürlüğü Derneği According to İFÖD’s EngelliWeb 2025 report, published in June 2026, a total of 1,505,484 websites and domain names had been blocked in Turkey by the end of 2025 through 1,284,464 decisions issued by 875 different institutions and judgeships.
