attrayant Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) It's a shame nobody thought to do a traceroute during the outage. While a single trace might not be conclusive, a dozen or more from folks in various places and with assorted ISPs would be more revealing.

keemapoot Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I suppose one gateway also means one big single point of failure, which means, internet reliability is less assured than before in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post T_Dog Posted June 3, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2014 Rather than censoring the internet, perhaps the government would consider eliminating the draconian laws on the books and move toward the modern age. If Thailand wants to be an economic success in today's world, more control of communication is certainly not going to take them in the right direction. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
englishoak Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) Thai authorities to build state-owned social network site Mon, 02/06/2014 - 18:40 | by prachatai The Ministry of Information and Communication Technology (MICT) is proposing a plan to build a state-owned Facebook-like social networking site called Thailand Social Network. http://prachatai.org/english/node/4076 interesting new developments on the social media issue Edited June 3, 2014 by englishoak 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keemapoot Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 In China, the government has created an "invisible birdcage" internet where the top social media companies like Renren (none Government owned) have thrived and copied Facebook's features. I don't see a Thai government-owned one working however, so maybe Thailand should take a page from China's model if they plan on installing these tight controls.

T_Dog Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I see the Daily Mail is blocked with a stern warning. Looks like it won't be long and news from outside will be limited by the single gateway. Most Thai folks I interact with know exactly what is going on, so I really fail to see the benefit any controls on the internet will provide. Interesting to note, one of my Thai friends recommended looking up articles by Andrew Marshall, and he is in the military. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
