....but grease our palms and we'll let you off and you can keep the p0rn

 

 

will wait for the court order before destroying my dvd collection.

I don't, but there must be lots of people with 'risque' pictures of their wives on digital stuff, what right would he have to fine you or jail you for what is your own personal 'family' business or lifestyle ?

As the man stated openly to the media not so long ago: "I have that power". 

Encrypted files, what better argument for encryption could there be.

Having porn is illegal but visiting the porn industry in thailand is not. Massage. Bar girls/whores. Street girls. So bangla patong and pat pong and soi cowboy and nana plaza bangkok or even half of pattaya will be closed down with immediate affect yes or no.

It's all fine art to me. Your Honor.

Best off not having any wild videos are pics on your computer.Or have them encrypted.I go into sites that Thai officials don’t know about.They can’t censor as many as there are.When you finished for the day clear it.You should be fine.

 

Best they start building more jails as there'll be more in than out.

Looks like a lot of mobile phones and laptops are going to be password protected from now on!

Next Facebook and social media there looks like a daily on assault on freedom Turkey style coming .

The Thai jails will be small to hold all the College students!

How about just arresting everyone! It appears everyone is breaking some new or archaic law here. I guess that’s why foreigners get that sense of lawlessness on arrival here because anything you do or say breaks some silly law somewhere and if it doesn’t they’ll bring up one that says covers it. In any case your always screwed if they want to make it so.

The bad news is this is "thought policing".

The good news is I just freed up 50 gigs on my hard drive.

Why would they want to bring this in at what is supposed (underlined) to be the run up to elections...?

It's a "catch all", with this ( and several other "catch alls" already on the books) they can arrest and imprison practically anyone they want whenever they want.

Question: How do they propose to enforce this act? House to house searches looking for computers which then get searched? Can they search a computer from afar electronically?

 

This seems like an impossibility, barring the "rat out the neighbour" syndrome because he looked at your daughter.

As long as your porn content is on a DVD and not the computer, you’ll be fine.

Got that right, jag. Something of a "one size fits all" law. Useful when they bungle a raid.... give them some reason to arrest the person(s) they wish to silence. Along the lines of that bust of Pattaya bridge players they ignorantly thought were gambling: "they didn't pay duty on their decks of cards!!!!"

It won't be enforced as such, it will be available to be used to " take down" anyone they want out of the way.

all along, here i am, worrying about 500 baht fines for offenses like trying to plough someone on the road... now this? 

Sounds more like someone with not enough to do or a guilty conscience thinking about what ifs in legislation than anything

Is Patpong legal?

What if you have a video of yourself and a girlfriend getting down and dirty? I mean, what's the harm in videoing yourselves in the throws of sexual ecstasy? Would they classify that as pornographic content lol? I would consider it a home video

They're really turning the screw now. These crazy ideas never lead to anywhere good. 

more fallout of the ultra-conservatism we are in now; this military bunch may cede ostensible power yet remain in shadowy control, however all the while, we are stuck with these goofy new laws

A friend told me that he went to a private function held by school teachers in the north east and they had naked girls serving drinkies.

Hope no one has kept pics on their phones.

She only moves the butts back and forth, not enough to be convicted.

Porn is in the eye of the beholder. Some 'officer' that can shake you down for a couple thousand baht can be mighty beholden. So I am told, that is.

My computer holds information from Prayuth promising elections by at least 5 previous dates.  Would someone please charge him for distributing false information, totally wrecking any chance the country had of any reasonable reputation and his contribution for lowering the medium intelligence level of the human race. That is, if he qualifies.

No. You are the guilty one for keeping his, ummmmmm, misinformation on your computer. That could hurt him. ?
