(Post Today photo)A new cybersecurity bill should not be extended to cover election campaigns on social media, according to Constitution Drafting Committee chairman Meechai Ruchupan. Wrongdoing online often goes undetected, especially if it is committed in the run-up to or during an election, Mr Pornpetch said. But Mr Meechai disagreed, saying such a measure could have a negative impact on people's daily lives. The cybersecurity bill is being scrutinised by the Council of State. Mr Pornpetch said the bill was not designed to limit freedom of expression.
