Turkey has reportedly blocked Microsoft’s OneDrive, along with some other cloud storage services. According to a report, the cloud storage services were blocked following the leak of some private emails from Berat Albayrak — the son in law of Turkey’s Energy Minister and President Erdo?an. Alongside OneDrive, Turkey has also reportedly blocked Google Drive, Dropbox, as well as GitHub.

Twitter account @TurkeyBlocks later stated that Turkey has “restored” access to Google Drive — however, it remains unclear if OneDrive, Dropbox, and GitHub are still blocked or not. This isn’t the first time Turkey has blocked online services — previously, a bunch of social networks including Facebook, YouTube and Twitter were blocked in the country.
