During June 2016, Google announced the introduction of a complete rebuild of the Google Sites platform, named the 'new Google Sites', along with transition schedule from the legacy, or 'classic Google Sites'.[1][2][3] The 'new Google Sites' abandoned all use of JotSpot technology, in favour of its own proprietary software. On 13 August 2020, the New Google Sites became the default option for website creation. From 1 September 2021, classic Google Sites will not be viewable by others.

Wiki censorship

In 2009 in Turkey, following a regional Turkish court ruling (Denizli Criminal Court of First Instance), all websites hosted on Google Sites were blocked in Turkey. This was following a reaction after a Google Sites page included an alleged insult of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of Turkey. Subsequently, in 2012 the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) ruled this blocking of Google Sites a breach of Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights (Yildirim v Turkey – 3111/10 – HEJUD [2012] ECHR 2074).[4][5] This ban was overturned and lifted in 2014.[6]
