Report New Cybercrime Law Targets Personal Data Misuse to Combat Cyber Threats
Photo courtesy of Medium In a concerted effort to curb cybercrime, a new law has been introduced to tackle the misuse of personal data, marking a significant step forward in protecting digital privacy. Announced by the Personal Data Protection Committee (PDPC), the Royal Decree on Measures for the Prevention and Suppression of Cybercrime 2025 was officially published in the Royal Gazette, coming into effect on April 13. The cornerstone of this legislation is the stringent protection of personal data, with severe penalties designed to deter potential violators. Under the new rules, sharing personal data without consent could result in up to one year of imprisonment and fines reaching 100,000 baht. More severe penalties await those buying or selling such data; offenders may face up to five years in prison, a fine of as much as 500,000 baht, or both. According to PDPC Secretary General, Police Colonel Surapong Plengkham, this decree addresses the growing threat of data exploitation by online scammers and call centre gangs, aiming to dismantle the roots of cybercrime. Notably, the law extends its protective reach to the data of deceased individuals, prohibiting its use in criminal or technological offences, thereby closing loopholes that could be exploited for malicious purposes. This legislative development builds upon the existing Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA), reinforcing efforts to thwart the sinister misuse of personal data. Pol. Col. Surapong emphasized the importance of public vigilance, advising individuals to safeguard their sensitive information and swiftly report any incidents of data compromise. To support these efforts, the PDPC has established the PDPC Eagle Eye Centre. This new body works in tandem with the Cyber Police’s Cyber Eye Centre, ensuring continuous surveillance of personal data breaches and rigorous enforcement of the law. The introduction of this law marks a proactive approach in the fight against cybercrime, setting a precedent for comprehensive legal protection in the digital age. As it takes effect, it serves as a crucial instrument in safeguarding both personal and national digital security, assuring citizens that their privacy is being robustly defended.

You're right and wrong, English is my first language, but right that it makes no sense, sent it far too early in the morning. As for general consensus, a modern day woke failing, kids no longer understand boundaries and run amok at school, home, and on the streets, rarely happened in my days, ask your parents/ grandparents. -

Report Thailand Declines US Loan Deal for F-16 Jets Over Tough Terms
For a country that never engages in war and only fights off illegal fishing in Thai waters I don’t see the need to spend too much money on their military. -

Are Trump's intentions positive, or is he just unhinged?
Let's see - rename the Gulf of Mexico, make Canada the 51st state, buy Greenland, make the Panama Canal American. End the Ukraine war in 24 hours. Why would anyone think he is not?
