geovalin Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Prime Minister Hun Sen today warned that government officials monitoring social media accounts are able to pinpoint a user’s location and identity in under eight minutes. Speaking to about 18,000 garment workers in Kampong Speu province’s Chbar Mon city, Mr Hun Sen said that the government has kept an eye on users making undesirable comments online. “Technology has allowed us to find their location in under eight minutes, even if they don’t reveal their real name,” Mr Hun Sen said. “Don’t think you can hide behind technology.” He noted that in the interest of national security, technology has become a critical tool in identifying online critiques, even outside of the country. “Everyone who is on the Facebook network, if you use it correctly, it could bring good things,” he said. “But when you insult, that’s when things get bad.” Mr Hun Sen said that the measure was first implemented following government criticism online regarding the current political climate following the dissolution of the main opposition party in November. read more https://www.khmertimeskh.com/520452/government-to-monitor-online-criticism/ -- © Copyright Khmer Times 09/08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
