kannot Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 perhaps a class action by all living in the southern provinces which were definitely there not just Nakorn si Thamarat to sue the immigration department for breach of trust and public disclosure of private information and public endangerment in a terrorist zone will assist them in becoming less blasé with aliens data and theyll drag it thru the court for 10 years before all complainants are found guilty...............Thailand land of the free land of the brave land of the effin moronic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuyJohninBKK Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 One thing I haven't seen made clear in any of this: Was this little project just the brainchild of the wild hair Immigration commander in the South and it was meant to only cover the South? Or, is this part of some broader project that the national Immigration folks are undertaking to develop this kind of tracking database nationwide? You'd think, some of the reporters pursuing this story might have asked that question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gramps Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 It was mentioned before that any Thaivisa users who innocently clicked on that site to look at it as it was posted about multiple times last night may be subject to legal issues. Is that really a concern? I mentioned that as a concern. Probably not a big concern but they may be digging through the IP records of who accessed it to find the original source of the hack. Forgot to turn my VPN on before looking and before knowing what was going on. Isn't the use of a VPN illegal in Thailand as well? No - only the misuse of it to by pass officially blocked sites or commit crimes like hacking into data bases at immigration. Tricky one. If you use a VPN to access a website, how would you know that you're committing a crime by accessing a site officially blocked by the Thai Govt?

Or, is this part of some broader project that the national Immigration folks are undertaking to develop this kind of tracking database nationwide? You'd think, some of the reporters pursuing this story might have asked that question. It's the first phase of a complex project. This was the trial of Phase One.I cannot disclose too much about the project, but Phase Four includes inserting a microchip under the traveller's skin, so that when he moves around Thailand that map becomes interactive. Just like GPS and Google Maps in your car. Edited March 28, 2016 by lkv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyberfarang Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Everything you do in Thailand requires copy of passport, home address etc, so whats the panic about??? Including bank account details. This is the part I am worried about. We have no ideas what, where and who has access to our personal information, how it can be used and where it might turn up. This data can be sold on and have no clues how we can protect ourselves against this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brfsa2 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 if you are from a country in South America or Africa, just google for your full name and address, or full name and passport. you will find the links to the government where all the data is available publicly. thats how I found mine, I google for my address to find the postcode, and I found my name and passport! I was like w t f? that's crazy! and all my flights details, and all my previous adresses. I email several government agencies regarding this issue. not a single reply! as expected. well TiT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
