Thai Junta's New Bill the First to Define Right/Wrong Sexual Acts

[Prachatai English]

(Prachatai English)

BANGKOK – The Inducement Suppression bill, which will ban specific kinds of pornography in a bid to increase efficiency in suppression, potentially paves way for a ban of group sex, bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, and sadomasochism (BDSM) in the name of public morals.

The bill also poses a great threat to media freedom as it not only broadly defines a wide range of media content deemed inappropriate, it also adopts the notorious article of the Computer Crime Act which indiscriminately holds internet intermediaries liable for all pornographic/violent materials without safe harbour.
