Myanmar enacts strict cybersecurity law enhancing censorship and information control

Credited from: APNEWS

  • Military-ruled Myanmar has initiated a new cybersecurity law aimed at controlling information flow and strengthening censorship efforts.
  • The law includes measures against VPN services, targeting communication methods that allow circumvention of state-imposed restrictions.
  • Sanctions for non-compliance can involve warnings, fines, and service suspensions for digital platforms.
  • Authorities can investigate, control, and block digital services deemed a threat to state security or public order.
  • The law requires platforms to retain user data for up to three years and can penalize those without official permissions for VPN services.
