He would get blocked there because BlueSky will comply with legal requests as well, because if they don’t they will face criminal charges and/or massive fines. BlueSky, being a platform that loves censorship, would not challenge the legal order in court like X are either.
Even fediverse instance owners would be forced to block his accounts under threat of fines and/or prosecution.
edit: BlueSky have already blocked his account lol
Criminal charges was probably the wrong word, but that’s being pedantic. The company operates in Turkey and allows Turkish people to use the product, so they have to follow Turkish laws. The Turkish government can file legal charges against them for failure to comply. Same with any fediverse instance owners - they would either have to block their instance from all Turkish users, or comply.
Why would he get blocked there?

The Turkish government does not have the authority to enforce criminal charges on an American person/company.
Only if the instance owners/servers were in Turkey.

It’s not. At all.
No, they wouldn’t. Once again, Turkey has no authority over people and servers not located in their jurisdiction.
The Turkish government has legal authority over companies that are serving their citizens.
Why do you think the GDPR laws were such a big deal even outside of the UK?
No. They don’t. You can keep repeating this non-sense but it’s simply untrue.
You don’t think companies that operate in Turkey for Turkish citizens have to follow any Turkish laws?
Again - GDPR.
Lemmy is not a company and the users and servers located outside of Turkey are not subject to the jurisdiction of Turkey.
If you’re just going to repeat the same non-sense over and over without any evidence I’m going to block you.
