On 20 July, Malaysia’s Dewan Negara (Senate) passed a cybercrime law that will expand transnational repression. Read through below to see what Malaysia’s borderless cybercrime machinery could unleash. Every expansion of police power arrives wearing the language of safety, and this one is no exception. Malaysia's Cybercrimes Act reaches anyone, anywhere, if the data touched a Malaysian system or if the person affected is Malaysian. Malaysia explicitly cited meeting its obligat

Today, Thailand rolled out the red carpet for Min Aung Hlaing, architect of Myanmar’s 2021 coup and ICC-wanted war criminal, who seeks international legitimacy for his “presidency” following military-engineered sham elections in April. ⚠️ While millions in Myanmar are bombed, jailed, and driven from their homes under Min Aung Hlaing’s regime, Thailand rewards their oppressor with official honours and business forums. Even worse, Thai authorities are actively colluding in tran

The surveillance industry behaves like any market under competition. Voluntary frameworks like the UN Guiding Principles carry zero consequences for companies, which is exactly why they get cited so often. The Cybercr

Governments across Southeast Asia are using cybersecurity as cover to surveil critics, police borders, and protect the interests of those in power. 🇺🇳 The UN Cybercrime Treaty expands state-to-state cooperation, lowers evidentiary standards, and defines ‘cybercrime’ so broadly that activists, journalists, and organisers fall within reach. Tech companies are part of the problem too, as they profit from our data and then hand it to the governments pursuing us. The people who

Today, 28 May, during To Lam’s official visit to Thailand, both leaders in a joint statement committed that neither country would allow its territory to be used for political activities against the other. They also pledged to strengthen extradition cooperation to suppress transnational dissent. In a region where authoritarian governments already hunt critics across borders, this is a dangerous

Bopha* is a woman environmental activist from Southeast Asia. She faced imprisonment for her activism and fled her country to survive. But the harassment only followed her in digital spaces. 👁️ As Bopha describes it, "Transnational Repression is a government tactic to shut down the voices of those who look for social justice.” 🚨 Repression continues online through digital threats or attacks: threatening messages, fake accounts, coordinated harassment, sexualised abuse, disi
