Too young to be old Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 12 hours ago, liberty9133 said: The law allows the National Cybersecurity Committee (NCSC) to summon individuals for questioning and enter private property without court orders in case of actual or anticipated "serious cyber threats." THE JUNTA GETS TO DECIDE WHAT IS AND WHAT IS NOT A SERIOUS THREAT. That law means the end of any sort of free speech on the internet. You could be arrested for merely posting anything! Welcome to European laws. The Met police have 900 officers dedicated to monitoring and tracking 'hate crime', which are, course are subjective. Stabbings are on the increase, and largely treated with very minor sentencing, but post a comment on twitter or a website/Facebook the police don't like and its an early moring call from the totally inept National Crime Agency (who, incidentally are not police officers, but civil servants with powers). Free speech in the UK disappeared long ago. Be careful what you post on the internet because it is there forever. As you all know Lese-majeste' is a catch-all crime in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought that getting a murderer off the streets, who can kill again at any time, a bigger priority than someone committing cyber crime.

curlylekan Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 A play right out of Stalinist Russia/Maoist China's handbook, scary. The military is doing everything it can to stay in power and keep that the status quo. I too wish they loved Thailand as much as me. I'd say the same for the Chinese government Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gk10002000 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Folks, despite the repeated rhetoric, the country really has been under a form of martial law ever since the junta took over a few years ago. The military, in the disguise of the non-elected PM that usurped control can basically and has basically done whatever they want. There is no oversight, there is no civilian control beyond what his administration wants to allow 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerojero Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 It's unfortunate and rather pathetic that all these laws are being rushed thru when an election is pending soon.

This may have a name change but is almost certain to continue as it is now. Don't expect the PM to change. Due to the powers he has given himself, he can do what the hell he likes. Don't like the political system here? Tough! You ain't gonna change it (neither are the Thai people). Suck it up and have another beer.
