Accessing YouTube in Turkey

YouTube is blocked once again in Turkey due to some lawsuit. This is one of the many blockings in the past. However, I believe this time it is blocked indefinitely. There are many work arounds for accessing YouTube such as using proxies and monkeying with DNS settings.

One other way is via iPhone!
I noticed that I was able to access YouTube videos via iPhone in Turkey, using a Turkish GSM operator's SIM card and their network. I also noticed that I was able to connect via WiFi.

Bottom line, if you want to watch YouTube in Turkey, get an iPhone, have it cracked so you can use your Turkish SIM card, and then tap on the YouTube icon.
