What “Telecom Regulator” are you talking about?

A quick AI query …. 

​The Information and Communication Technologies Authority (ICTA), known in Turkish as Bilgi Teknolojileri ve İletişim 
Kurumu (BTK), serves as Turkey's national regulatory and inspection authority for telecommunications and internet 
services. Established on January 29, 2000, it was initially named the Telecommunications Authority (Telekomünikasyon 
Kurumu) before adopting its current title.

The ICTA is tasked with overseeing electronic communications, including the regulation of internet services. It 
operates under the broader policy framework set by the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure, which is responsible 
for policy-making in the electronic communications sector.

While the BTK has broad authority to implement regulations ensuring the security and proper functioning of 
communication networks, there is no publicly available information indicating that it has explicitly mandated Source 
Address Validation (SAV) across all internet and telecom providers. However, given the BTK's extensive regulatory 
powers, it is within their jurisdiction to introduce such requirements if deemed necessary for network security or 
public interest.
