MCMC, stop playing Big Brother!


I FIND it totally unacceptable that the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has been playing Big Brother all these years. It got worse in the months leading up to GE14.

It censored and blocked online content. And “to maintain public order”, it even took people to court over actions that it believed to be “detrimental to the public”. It has the audacity to say that blocking certain websites is in line with the laws of the country.
