I don't know much about Turkish ISPs but the path they have taken seems even worse than a global internet blackout. After all those who only need to do their business can ignore the blockage.

Of course 8.8.8.8 was a bad shortcut: exactly like Twitter, it is a textbook example of SPOF. So while I sympathize with the protests, I hope this episode will teach a few at least the importance of decentralized services.
