jackspratt Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Thailand seeks to block YouTube videos again From correspondents in Bangkok | September 21, 2007 THAILAND is seeking to block clips on video-sharing website YouTube, accusing the chief royal adviser of being the mastermind of the bloodless coup last year, a top Justic Ministry official said today. The Government, which lifted a five-month ban on YouTube in August after the website agreed to block clips deemed offensive to revered King Bhumibol Adulyadej, was seeking a court order to block two video clips posted recently. "In the next couple of days, we will seek a court order to block those links deemed to cause public confusion and threaten national security," Yanaphon Youngyuen, head of the Justice Ministry's Internet crimes unit, said. "While awaiting the court order, we are seeking co-operation from internet service providers to block those links," he said. The two-part postings, entitled "The Crisis of Siam," and running 10:42 minutes and 6:06 minutes, accuse former Prime Minister Prem Tinsulanonda of plotting the September 2006 coup, not the generals who took credit.
