We live in an Orwellian society. Welcome to 1984 (which was when society was ironically a lot more free'er)

@ Mirai - too true. Methinks if they want to crack down on organized crime in Thailand, the best place to start is the biggest crime-gangs: the Thai police.

Learning from the N S A and its partners, but who will guard the guards?

My goodness! Disparging the monarch is a crime? How 17th century! A step ahead of DPRK, not!

The Thai establishment is rooted in Orwellian mind control traditions that force and foster compliance for a king, born outside Thailand and the owner of most of its land! The king is revered as a paternal figure dispensing largesse to the less fortunate who are then literally forced to accept nothing less than a kowtowing role-it is no wonder that entrenched interests hold those critical under the threat of imprisonment for perceived transgressions!
