A_Traveller Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) Well I'll be honest, and say that looking at this I tried a site which has been off-limits for years {given that it presents elements of Thai sexuality that many are not comfortable with}, and it came straight up. All puns intended. Regards /edit mad typist strikes again.....// Edited July 2, 2008 by A_Traveller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_Traveller Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) Just to add I've just tried two key proxy provision sites {not that I'd use such a thing, heaven forfend}, and for the first time in years they both came up!

Information and Communication Technology Minister Man Pattanotai ICT tasks police with apprehending 100 illegal websites Minister of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Man Pattanotai yesterday handed over a list of illegal websites including pornographic sites, sites violating copyright laws, gambling sites, and sites endangering national security totaling 100 sites to Deputy Commander of the Central Investigative Division of the Police, Police Major General Panya Marmen for processing. Police Major General Panya stated that police would pursue transgressors, including issuing warrants for any site operators located abroad.

onethailand Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 LOL... used to be the Thai Police, now it's the CAT... which provides the international gateway for most ISPs. Definitely a good reason to switch to True, which runs its own international gateway. Or CSLoxinfo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicSurfer Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 (edited) Police Major General Panya stated that police would pursue transgressors, including issuing warrants for any site operators located abroad. I can just see the Warrent they will pass to the USA and other governments.... "Can you Please, Please, arrest these naughty people and send them back to Thailand so we can throw them into The Bangkok Hilton... They have committed the dastardy crime of "Telling the Truth" !!!! Oh My !!!! Oh Me!!! So Naughty.. So Bad !!!" Do you think that any government Official will even Blink before they Flash them a "Full Moon" ? Best laugh I've had all day.
