Erdowie, Erdowo, Erdogan

Apparently the Turkish President,  Recep Tayyip Erdogan, has never heard of the Streissand Effect . From the New York Times: If President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey had hoped that summoning the German ambassador would get a video poking fun at him by a German satire program removed from the Internet, he was wrong.  Instead, the move had any number of consequences, including

Χρόνια πολλά!
