Plot

A romantic drama about an androgynous boy named Caniko (Müjde Ar), who is abducted by a gang and forced to dress like a woman and be a köçek. A mob attempts to rape Caniko, but when they find out he's really a boy, they stab him. He's taken to hospital where he undergoes a sex change operation. Now he works as a belly dancer and by chance, meets his buddy Adnan (Mahmut Hekimoğlu), who falls in love with him without recognizing that they are old friends.[1][2][3]

gollark: I mean, all recent Intel CPUs have the Intel Management Engine, i.e. a mini-CPU with full access to everything running unfathomable code.
gollark: At some point you probably have to decide that some issues aren't really realistic or useful to consider, such as "what if there are significant backdoors in every consumer x86 CPU".
gollark: Presumably most of the data on the actual network links is encrypted. If you control the hardware you can read the keys out of memory or something (or the decrypted data, I suppose), but it's at least significantly harder and probably more detectable than copying cleartext traffic.
gollark: Well, yes, but people really like blindly unverifiably trusting if it's convenient.
gollark: Or you can actually offer something much nicer and better in some way, a "killer app" for decentralized stuff, but if you do that and it's not intrinsically tied to the decentralized thing the big platforms will just copy it.
