Pol Lt Gen Thitirat Nongharnpitak, commander of the Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB) says police are installing software to allow surveillance of individual citizens online. Pol Lt Gen Thitirat Nongharnpitak seems to want to warn Thai people against the spread of lese majeste material. Pol Lt Gen Thitirat's threat is also rather questionable. Pol Lt Gen Thitirat said specifically his anti-lese majeste investigators plan to target internet users who only see a web page or post that is illegal. Pol Lt Gen Thitirat and colleagues are simultaneously trying to intimidate all internet users while demanding they also perform the impossible task of pre-censoring themselves.
