BREAKING—Facebook is now geoblocking some posts by Andrew MacGregor Marshall, Ajarn Somsak Jeamteerasakul and others. This means that some of their posts can be viewed by people outside Thailand, but within Thailand they have been blocked.
If you want to verify, and you are in Thailand, try to view this post: https://www.facebook.com/zenjournalist/posts/10154612355501154 Then try to view again using a VPN. You will see that the post can be viewed by people (apparently) outside Thailand, but not inside Thailand.
(If you are outside Thailand you can perform the same experiment in reverse, by using a VPN from a Thai location).
This is a very significant development.
The Thai junta has successfully forced Facebook to start helping hide the truth.
But the message to Thais who use Facebook is clear: the junta wants to hide the truth from you, and Facebook has been forced to enable their efforts to hide the truth from you.
