YouTube and Spotify accused of 'censorship' after blocking left-wing folk group in Turkey
YouTube and Spotify have been accused of "censorship" after the Turkish government blocked videos and songs by the left-wing folk band Grup Yorum. According to Turkish freedom of expression organisation IFOD, Turkish authorities blocked access to more than 450 videos by Grup Yorum on YouTube last week in the name of "protecting national security and public order". They said the 454 clips, shared since 2006 by dozens of YouTube accounts, had totalled more than 205 million views. IFOD said in a statement on Friday that at least one of the group's albums had also been blocked on Spotify and Apple Music. A similar request was put to streaming site Deezer, but they refused to comply. Legislation passed in 2022 handed the government's Information and Communication Technologies Authority (BTK) powers to compel social media companies to comply with requests to take down content and hand over user data or to be subject to reduction of their bandwidth. New MEE newsletter: Jerusalem Dispatch Sign up to get the latest insights and analysis on Israel-Palestine, alongside Turkey Unpacked and other MEE newsletters Outlets such as X (formerly Twitter) have blocked scores of accounts in Turkey in recent months at the request of the government, mainly leftists and oppositions figures. 'Perception of complicity' Yaman Akdeniz, founder of IFOD, told Middle East Eye that social media platforms had been facing renewed pressure following the outcry over the arrest of Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu in March. "They all face substantial fines as well as threats of throttling of their services. So, at first sight, it may seem understandable that they all comply," he said. 'Their silence regarding the blocking of Grup Yorum's songs and albums suggests a reluctance to challenge or even acknowledge the censorship' - Yaman Akdeniz, IFOD "However, their silence regarding the geographical blocking of Grup Yorum's songs and albums suggests a reluctance to publicly challenge or even acknowledge the censorship. The lack of transparency and official announcements from these platforms exacerbates the perception of complicity." Middle East Eye contacted YouTube's owner Google and Spotify for comment, but neither had responded at time of publication. Since their founding in 1985, Grup Yorum's songs have touched on a wide range of progressive causes, including lauding socialist icons such Deniz Gezmis - a Marxist revolutionary hanged in 1968, criticising the killing of 15-year old Berkin Elvan by police in 2014, gentrification, imperialism, women's rights, the struggle for Kurdish rights, and covering famous leftist anthems such as Bella Ciao and the Internationale. In response to the blocking of their songs, Grup Yorum announced on Monday that they were giving away their entire discography for free, posting a link on their social media feed. Grup Yorum: Turkish folk band vows to continue struggle after pausing death fast Read More » On Tuesday, they called for a three-day boycott of the platforms. "We are not dependent on these monopolized platforms," they wrote on X. "They are trying to erase Grup Yorum, who have been singing the people's folk songs for 40 years, from everywhere. They will not succeed!" The group have long been accused by the government of association with the Revolutionary People's Liberation Party/Front (DHKP-C), an armed Marxist-Leninist group responsible for carrying out numerous attacks on government officials and foreign officials in Turkey and abroad. The band's line-up changes regularly, with members frequently spending time in and out of prison or fleeing abroad. In 2020, singer and bassist Ibrahim Gokcek died after an almost year-long "death fast" protesting the ban on the band's concerts and the imprisonment of a number of band members.

How Shorts, Reels, and Stories are Changing the Way Sports Fans Consume Content in MENA
Entertainment as we know it is changing. And changing fast. Screens once dominated by full-length broadcasts have transformed into rapid-fire feeds of reels, shorts, and stories. Entertainment as we know it is changing. And changing fast. Screens once dominated by full-length broadcasts have transformed into rapid-fire feeds of reels, shorts, and stories. To help sports rights holders keep up with fans' unquenchable thirst for content, WSC Sports developed the industry's leading platform for creating innovative AI-tailored content experiences that help organizations deepen the connection with their fans. To get a better understanding of the latest content trends, we analyzed data from over 550 of the world's leading sports rights owners that use our platform. According to the data, the average length of videos created by sports rights holders on the WSC Sports platform has decreased by 24% year over year to an average of 1:11 minutes. In the MENA region, the average video length is just 1:05–-almost a 10% difference compared to the rest of the world. Even websites and streaming apps traditionally associated with long-form video are being affected by this shift. YouTube Shorts, for instance, now account for over 20% of all videos uploaded to the platform. TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Stories across have conditioned fans to expect fast, punchy, highly engaging content—especially in sports, where every second can feel like a highlight. Impact on the Sports Industry For sports rights holders it's a signal to adapt quickly, if you haven't already. Long-form content will always have its place, especially for live broadcasts and deep storytelling. But the window to capture fan attention before and after the game is narrowing. And here's the catch: a lot of organizations are investing millions—sometimes hundreds of millions—just to secure the rights to live sports. Maximizing the value of that investment means extending the life of each broadcast as long as possible. That's where short-form content comes in. By slicing key moments into dynamic, bite-sized videos optimized for social, mobile, and on-demand platforms, teams, leagues, and broadcasters can get exponentially more return on the rights they've acquired—especially in a region with one of the highest average screen times. In Saudi Arabia and Egypt for example, the typical smartphone owner spends 4 ½ hours per day on their phone. That's more than a half hour longer than the global average. When it comes to vertical content—that could be anything from a 4:5 post on Instagram to 9:16 reels and stories—organizations from the MENA region are also outpacing their global counterparts by creating 13% more vertical videos on average. In total, the majority of videos created by WSC Sports' clients—an astounding 67%—were in a vertical format. If short-form consumption continues to rise—and there's every reason to believe it will—organizations that don't recalibrate their content strategy risk falling behind in the race for relevance and reach. What Rights Holders Are Doing—And What They Need to Do To keep up, many organizations have ramped up their short-form production, and even hired dedicated teams to manage everything 'content'. From finally saying yes to opening that TikTok account, to adapting to new content formats like shorts and stories, the push is clearly there. But creating this volume of content quickly, accurately, and at scale remains a challenge—and only one piece of the puzzle. To engage today's evolving audiences, broadcasters and rights holders must begin operating more like digital entertainment platforms by blending innovation, content, culture, and personalization to connect with different means providing experiences they've come to expect, like an app filled with the type of videos already being created for social. An app should also be home to anything you'd find on an organization's website including tickets, news, standings, and upcoming events—the key differentiator here: you own and access user data in your app, something that you miss when only publishing to social media platforms. Sound like a lot? That's because it is. Traditional production and post-production workflows weren't built for this kind of pace. And while some teams might have the manpower to produce content in real and near time, it's often reactive, inconsistent, and difficult to maintain—especially across multiple platforms, formats, and audience segments. AI-Automation is No Longer a 'Nice to Have' Just like every other industry, sports organizations will need to adopt the latest AI tools to stay in the game and keep their brands competitive. WSC Sports helps rights holders meet fans where they are—with automated, personalized video content that's ready for every screen, every moment, and every platform. Our AI-powered platform takes live broadcast streams and transforms them into short-form videos, built for the way fans consume content. Who's Doing it Best?

How retail media unites brand and performance marketing
One of the most frustrating discussions for a chief marketing officer can be convincing the C-suite or the board to ramp up the awareness marketing spend. The cost leaves a dent in the profit and loss (P&L) statement and the uplift isn't seen anytime immediately, nor is it always so easy to measure. Sometimes, it's difficult to prove if there was any impact at all. Marketers have long wrestled with balancing immediate, measurable results against building lasting brand equity. Lower-funnel performance marketing is data-driven, conversion-focused and ROI-obsessed. Upper-funnel awareness shapes brand perception, loyalty and emotional connection over time. The objectives differ: Brand-building reaches consumers who aren't yet in-market, planting seeds of future demand through emotional resonance and memory structures, ensuring your brand is top of mind when they are ready to buy. Performance marketing captures existing demand, targeting ready-to-buy consumers with calls to action such as 'add to basket' or 'view product'. In the past, media consumption was relatively predictable. A brand might reach consumers through a TV campaign, complemented by print ads and radio – with a fairly linear journey from awareness to purchase. Today, however, media channels are highly fragmented. A single consumer might see a brand's Instagram ad while scrolling at breakfast, listen to a podcast sponsorship on their commute, get retargeted with a YouTube ad over lunch, read a review on an e-commerce site in the evening, and complete a purchase through a mobile app while watching Netflix. At the same time, consumer journeys have become more fluid and unpredictable. Shoppers no longer follow a neat path from awareness to consideration to conversion. They might move instantly from discovery to purchase – or loop back through stages multiple times – influenced by content, peer reviews, promotions and convenience at any given moment. This complexity makes it harder for brands to separate brand-building and performance into distinct activities. Platforms such as retail media, where consumers can be influenced and converted in the same moment – are increasingly necessary to meet customers wherever they are in their journey. The rise of retail media: A dual-purpose engine Retail media is reshaping how brands connect with consumers. E-commerce platforms or super apps are no longer just points of sale – they've become powerful advertising ecosystems. Traditional digital advertising is limited to the mid and upper funnel as users can't typically transact in the environment they consume the advert. In contrast, retail media, typically lower down the marketing funnel, allows brands to achieve both within a single ecosystem – building awareness through sponsorships and driving purchases through native placements, often in the same session. For marketers, this means no longer having to choose between long-term brand-building and short-term sales; retail media enables both simultaneously, backed by real-time measurement and first-party data. Logged-in environments: A strategic advantage A major strength of retail media is that it operates within logged-in ecosystems. Unlike traditional web traffic, where advertisers rely on cookies and proxies, retail media platforms have direct, first-party relationships with users. This unlocks precise targeting, personalised experiences and accurate measurement – all while respecting privacy. As third-party cookies disappear and data regulations tighten, logged-in environments are becoming the gold standard for digital advertising. At Careem, our Everything App connects millions of logged-in users across ride-hailing, food delivery, groceries and more. Through Careem Ads, brands can engage high-intent audiences in real-world moments, whether it's sponsoring a grocery category to drive awareness, promoting offers based on ride destinations, or activating around food and basket behaviour to boost conversions. With first-party data and real-time optimisation, advertisers can deliver targeted, measurable campaigns that build brand and drive performance – all within a single user journey. Beyond retailers: Retail media opens doors for non-endemic brands Retail media is no longer just for endemic brands selling through the platform. Increasingly, non-endemic brands, from financial services to telecoms and entertainment, are tapping into retail media to reach high-value, logged-in audiences at moments of real intent. A bank promoting a cashback card during a ride-hailing trip, or a streaming service advertising a new show in a food delivery journey, are no longer exceptions. At Careem, we've seen non-endemic advertisers creatively leverage our ecosystem to engage consumers at meaningful points of their everyday lives. This shift dramatically expands the retail media opportunity, opening new demand sources and accelerating innovation in how platforms are monetised. Regional momentum and maturity The Middle East's retail media landscape is evolving fast. Major e-commerce players are building sophisticated platforms that serve both brand and performance goals, fuelled by high mobile adoption, a young digital-first population, and a booming online commerce sector. As privacy regulations tighten, the importance of first-party insights – a core strength of retail media – is only growing, making it a strategic choice for marketers seeking both reach and responsibility. Practical impact: Meeting marketers where they are Retail media enables brands to run full-funnel strategies within a single, logged-in environment. Platforms such as Careem allow marketers to target specific premium audiences, personalise campaigns and attribute results accurately – delivering both brand-building and conversions seamlessly. For non-endemic brands, this unlocks a powerful new channel to engage audiences without needing a direct retail relationship. Rethinking the funnel in the age of retail media The classic marketing funnel – awareness, consideration and conversion – assumed a linear path. Today, consumers move from discovery to purchase in minutes, often across multiple devices and platforms. Retail media matches this reality, allowing brands to reach and convert audiences seamlessly within trusted environments. In a region as dynamic as the Middle East, adopting integrated, full-funnel retail media strategies isn't optional; it's becoming essential. Brands that separate brand-building and performance risk missing out on both growth and efficiency. Looking ahead As marketing budgets face more scrutiny and expectations for ROI increase, the industry will need more solutions that don't force a binary choice between short-term results and long-term brand strength. Retail media offers a compelling answer with its ability to deliver both. By Tayab Hasan, General Manager – Ads, Careem
