Police plans crackdown on online media violation

By The Nation

 

Chatrapee Poonsri

 

The Royal Thai Police is planning measures to control online media that violate the law cause conflicts in Thai society, said Col Chatrapee Poonsri, spokesperson of Royal Thai Armed Forces.

 

Online media have been under watch since they are based on human relationships and very useful in exchanging information, knowledge and entertainment. However, they were also used for illegal purposes, a meeting of high-ranking police officers heard today (February 18). 

 

The Royal Thai Police will execute measures such as asset seizure of wrongdoers to ensure public confidence in the digital age.

With what IT equipment?
almost all of the Thai police computers are still running Win XP;

sometimes under Win 7 ...

Another announcement that will be followed by NOTHING, as usual ( comme d'habitude )

How long before they come for TV members? Asset seizures? I’m sure some pooyais would love to put their mia noi in the house you built and planned to grow old in.

[Laughing Gravy]

I guess sarcasm wont be seen as appropriate. I wonder if the words such as democracy, somewhere, Thai style, hopefully,  might be seen as a bit risque.

the local thai police interpreting what M I G H T cause conflicts is a pretty bad idea; they are challenged enough just to interpret thai laws

Well, nothing you or I can really do about that, just go along for the ride and imagine what it must be like to be a rural Thai. No money, no power, no influence etc etc.

 

Life's a game.

the problem is their copies are usually pirated ones like many thai businesses use, hard to crack down on anyone when you are using illegal copes of programs to do it

Forget the online media police, the grammar police need to take a look at that article.

 

I haven't a clue what it's supposed to say.

Hmmm. Maybe.  I don't think they're *quite* full though - still  some room for more.

 

Seriously though - it isn't truth they dislike per se, It's discovering that reality and what they think are not the same thing. Understanding that you're deluded or have been conned loses you some face and that's no good at all.

IF it looks like a 'Duck', Quacks like a 'Duck', Walks like a 'Duck', wags it's tail like a 'Duck'........

THEN IT MUST BE A 'Duck'..... SAME can be said about 'Communism'.........

It is really a move to shut up the complainer who have 'just and real' complaints about 'THEM'.

If you replat the 's' sound at the end of each word with a 't' you'll almot sound thai.

Thailand is the world leader in blocking web sites. 

 

Other rankings where Thailand is champion:

1. Road deaths

2. Military coups

3. Generals-to-soldiers relation

 

to lead the corruption index, there's still some work to be done to compete with countries l North Korea, Somalia and Syria. But the general will solve the problem. Just a matter of time.

Thailand appears to be following the lead of so-called democracies like the UK - where these days you can get your collar felt or even arrested for making "offensive" (not illegal) - remarks on social media. 

 

Free speech champion Toby Young has launched an online protest movement to push back against the clamp-down on what people can say - or even safely think.

It is going to be an uphill struggle. An increasing number of  Western governments seem keen to ditch democracy in favour of Chinese-style benevolent authoritarianism. They are rushing to roll out 5G communications systems similar to those used by the Communist giant to monitor and control its citizens around the clock.

 

More of us need to ask ourselves: are faster downlods speeds and a few extra electronic gizmos truly worth the risks posed by such an Orwellian digital panopticon?

Oh no.

 

Thailand is sliding further from a fun happy smiley place to a crappy, miserable military dictatorship run by morons and incompetents whose limited schooling took place before critical thinking was introduced, and who don't know anything other than banning, cracking down and stopping people from doing stuff that they want to do.

 

Get out of our lives, you morons. You are accountable to the people. You are not the boss of the people.

1) Tor Browser  (oignon circuit internet browser)

2) VPN 

3) email address @protonmail.com (even safer than hushmail.com) 

Not easy for the CIA to find the owner so for the Thai police ????

PS: yes I do that configuration "sometimes"

You can still have fun in China, if you're not welded inside your apartment in a quarantine area that is.

I see China has just withdrawn press credentials from 3 WSJ bods for just such nonsense. Apology and several mea culpas to follow.

I think I need to get one of these new Chinese security locks on my door to keep people out, they're very secure, here's an example :

 

 

I'm sure there's some kind of fingerprint or pin code reader on the inside to unlock it....right?
