MANY SOCIAL media users' comments about the Technology Crime Suppression Division (TCSD)'s plan to monitor conversations and comments posted on the social-media application Line often took a funny or ironic turn.
On Twitter
@Phil_kttv: “Line is toxic and violates the law or threatens national security.”
@Kornky: “We should write letters, it’s better than making conversation on Line.”
@wonderwine: “Government, please check my e-mail too. I’m too lazy to check them myself.”
@wongthanong: “These men always create laws and say it is for national security, I think it’s more about emotional insecurity.”
