    Angry Internet censorship

    Hello all.

    As some of you know, my country, Turkey, is censoring the internet heavily and make all the hosting providers log all the internet traffic. Recently, twitter blocked and it is impossible to access it without a vpn. Even google dns is blocked. (8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4)

    Also there are some enforcements. When I buy a dedicated server from a datacenter in Turkey, they have to keep all the logs and they have to send these logs regularly, to a ministry called TIB.

    Not only that, if you buy from a reseller, they have to keep the logs, too. So you are being monitored even you don't something wrong and these logs are being kept for two years, at least they say so.

    Here is my question : Which countries have similar enforcements? Does USA or Canada force datacenters to monitor its customers?

    Disclaimer : I am not sure where to open this thread, it can be moved to another section if it is necessary.
