The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has instructed Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to redirect Domain Name Service (DNS) traffic that uses third-party DNS servers back to their own DNS servers
MCMC has blocked a total of 24,277 websites between between 2018 to Aug 1, classified into various categories, which are online gambling (39 per cent), pornography/obscene content (31 per cent), copyright infringement (14 per cent), other harmful sites (12 per cent), prostitution (two per cent) and unlawful investments/scams (two per cent).
“It has been falsely claimed that the measure undertaken by MCMC is a draconian measure. We reiterate that Malaysia’s implementation is for the protection of vulnerable groups from harmful online content.
These guys ever heard of Mozilla and good old ECH along with DoH? Just lol at these noobs.
And if the Malaysian government wants to try fucking with American tech they’ll get what’s coming for them
Actually they’re smarter than you… they know they don’t need to brainwash every single citizen, only the ones gullible enough to fall for it, which is the vast majority of the population.
Only even 5% of the world population has objectively good computer skills according to OECD.
Well, time to teach Malaysians about DNS and anarchy then
American tech?
This means less users for Google, Cloudflare etc
