Because until recently they didn’t achieve mass adoption.
I bet many more countries will fellow suit (maybe Brazil, Turkey, the middle east, some African countries, Russia, … ) or try and throttle connection to push people to give-up!
Yes. They don’t bother censoring stuff like Signal because over here nobody uses them. Even if they blocked it as I said even the shittiest vpn you can find on the Play Store can circumvent their page blocking. It’s not like the Great Firefall where you have to jump through numerous hoops to get around it. It is much easier to just keep people ignorant with a non functional education system that teaches nothing and promote blind patriotism by talking about the “good old days” when Turkey was the most powerful state in the world.
To my knowladge no they don’t. However for example if you Tweet stuff they don’t like for example they will kick your ass into the jail. Limited freedom of speech is pretty bad however Turkey also has more serious problems.
Not their fault, they can nevertheless make it sensorship resistant if they:
1 - stopped working on gimmicks and started rolling out usernames
2- Integrated a tor service for use when needed, or just route requests through Tor while Orbot takes care of the rest.

Turkey doesn’t really care about this stuff. Even if they did it wouldn’t matter as even the shittiest VPN on the market can circumvent their ban.

I mean that would obviously be bad if more countries did that, but that’s not signals fault btw
