Two years in jail for reporting news without a license (bangkokpost.com)

Possibly of interest to HN due to all the recent discussions about fake news. So here's a way to squash it, as well as any other news governments don't like.

Also of possible interest to HN because "reporting news" inclues apps that are used to report news. Presumably the platform hosting the app as well as the app developer (?, not sure) are at risk.

I wonder what the price to pay is for commenting on the news under such nonsense?
