ICT Minister and police want to arrest “illegal websites operators”… even abroad




A very nice Lunacy Of the Day. Consider this :


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.


Police will also continue cooperating with the ICT to shut down websites in violation of laws after working with the ICT's various database departments to apprehend a multitude of malicious websites. Authorities revealed that they have been able to process 90% of cases begun in the past year. (PRD)


It's coming from the propagandstaffel of the government (Public Relation Departement).


It's difficult to understand, it's badly written, it's certainly not reliable, but it's definitely and highly entertaining. ;-)


And its shows the mindset of those people... Scary.


Arrest illegal website operators, even abroad, “processing...“... ;-)


You were thinking that a court decision was necessary to block a website, to declare a website “illegal“... apparently the bozos at ICT Ministry and in the police don't care. At all.
