jesimps Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 'Biased Thais' who criticise Thailand and who support HRW. Unable to link but on front page BP today. Rubi ( a trusted poster here) said it was so people would stop chatting and go back to work. Was he wrong? If it is the Rubi I am thinking of it would not. Rubi would just spend more ime talking to himself .....and the photo of the general he keeps in his wallet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dieseldave1951 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Instead, the system would aim to filter out any information that could ...... contaminate the minds of children. I take it then the entire Thai TV network will be shut down then. a spot on quote well done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Deerhunter Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Sort of sounds like communism..... Often communism sounds a lot like totalitarianism. So the reverse could possibly be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostoday Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 (edited) may be his new boss told him to get more on the ball, so Somyot's ex secretary had to come up with some BS. By the way are they messing with skype? Anybody? Asia Bureau Chief HONG KONG – Chinese authorities Thursday confirmed that they have blocked use of foreign-owned Internet messaging services including Line and KakaoTalk. China’s State Internet Information Office said that the move was designed to help fight terrorism. Messaging and video services have been used to spread information on bomb making. Both services are Korean-owned, with Line developed by the Japanese subsidiary of Korea’s Naver Corporation. Korea’s Ministry of Science, ICT, and Future Planning said that it had been informed by China of the block. Users have reported disruption for over a month. Other services named by the SIIO notice include Didi, Talk Box and Vower. It is unclear whether WeChat is also affected. The move quickly sparked online comments suggesting that China is further attempting to quash public dissent on issues as various as democracy in Hong Kong and separatism in restive Xinjiang province. While not confirming the detailed purpose, the SIIO itself said that only [Chinese-regulated)]media agencies are allowed to carry current affairs news. China has long banned Facebook, Skype, Twitter and Google Talk, blocking them by means of its so-called ‘Great Firewall.’ Assume Thailand would be the same. http://variety.com/2014/digital/asia/china-blocks-foreign-owned-instant-messaging-services-1201277575/ Edited October 2, 2015 by lostoday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duckmandon Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) So with the most corrupt police force in the world in charge of the gateway it will pave the way for extorsion, blackmail & internet fraud. Wow! Way to go Thailand. The Thai police will now be the richest profession in the world if they already aren't.

Cake Monster Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 In today,s BP, ( 03.10.15 ) under the article heading of " Prime Minister backs down over single gateway ", the Colonel who is now in charge of Communication Authority of Thailand ( C.A.T. ) issued a statement saying that although a single gateway was only being discussed at the moment, ISP providers could " rent " space on CAT servers to cut costs. Read into that what you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobb Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 I do not think the Thai police can give assurance to this gateway project. The let bombers into the country. Let slave traders cross the Thai border for a price and think they are above the law. More bad police in Thailand than fishermen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonsalviz Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 If the police say it won't breach freedoms than you can bet your bottom dollar it will. That's the whole point of a single gateway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuanku Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Democracy must be built through open societies that share information. When there is information, there is enlightenment. When there is debate, there are solutions. When there is no sharing of power, no rule of law, no accountability, there is abuse, corruption, subjugation and indignation.
