Great Firewall Thailand - No Privacy

Great Firewall Thailand - To Protective?

Thai's military government has demanded the creation of a great firewall of Thailand to control the flow of information on the Internet. To have a 'great wall of Thailand' - the country will follow China. 
General Prayuth’s government has asked the  Justice Ministries and the National Police Department to create a internet gateway in order to control inappropriate websites and to control the flow of information into the country from overseas.
The order was given on June 30th, but the public were left in the dark.
Prem Sichanugrist or @sikachu on Twitter said,

“Yes. Thailand is about to have The Great Firewall just like China, except it will be s****ier and corrupted as hell”.
He also tweeted:
- having a single gateway and a single point of failure is a bad idea.
The cabinet resolution was for a way to censor and to control the flow of information and that cannot be done with strong encryption. The cabinet resolution said to report back on any laws that needed to be changed to make this possible. Banning encryption would be a logical law to pass to make the original cabinet resolution implementable.
