Thailand’s Digital Economy and Society Ministry (DES) has blocked 138,660 attempts to access illicit social media pages and website URLs during the past 11 months. This is an 11-fold increase year-on-year.

According to Minister Prasert Jantararuangtong, the ministry has focused on combating cybercrime, particularly by stifling access to illicit social media platforms, pages, and URLs.

Fraud was the most common cybercrime, and the ministry blocked 47,471 page views, nearly eight times more than during the same period last year.
