Sounds weird to me. bangkokpundit â€@bangkokpundit 1m FB is back for some but we are told by ICT perm sec that it was ordered blockage albeit temporarily so could be blocked again soon.

waerth Posted May 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Breaking: Thai authorities block FB http://prachatai.com/english/node/4050 Thai media reported that the Permanent Secretary of the ICT Ministry on Wednesday told media that the ministry was ordered by the military junta to block Facebook because the servince was used to provoke conflict and violence, according to Post Today twitter. Since about 3pm, Thai netizens reported that they cannot access Facebook from various Internet Service Providers. At 4.30pm, Thai netizens reported that they can access Facebook normally. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Judging on the frenzy that started on Twitter when Facebook became unavailable I would not be surprised if someone in the military changed their minds after reading that. And they gave the excuse of a mistake .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While NCPO insist no order to block. Zoe Daniel â€@zdaniel 2m @JonahFisher let's see...could have been a test. Interesting reaction nonetheless! David Quine â€@DavidQuine 2m Who blinked first? Junta panics. Facebook back online Jonah Fisher â€@JonahFisher 2m Vimeo has been properly blocked - with a NCPO message. Maybe they're running through their censorship options.
