Just hours after Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan threatened to “root out” Twitter, graffiti has been popping up around Istanbul with two IP addresses anyone can use to circumvent the government’s ban. The two numbers — 8.8.8.8. and 8.8.4.4. — refer to Google’s Public DNS, which can be easily utilized to maintain access to Twitter.

DNS = Domain Name Server. DNS takes your website name like Twitter.com and turns it into a number so you can reach it. 8.8.8.8 is the physical address for Google's Public DNS. Just in case Obummer tries that here.
