Legalább 19 ember meghalt és többtucatnyian megsérültek Nepálban, miután a kormány ellen tüntető fiatalok összecsaptak a rendvédelmi erőkkel az ország fővárosában, Katmanduban hétfőn – írta a BBC.
A Z generációs fiatalok azután hirdettek tüntetést a parlament épületéhez, miután a nepáli kormány a múlt héten bevezette a Facebook, a YouTube és az X korlátozását. A kormány szerint az álhírek, a gyűlöletkeltő beszéd és az online átverések terjedése miatt volt szükség a platformok szabályozására, amivel viszont kiváltották a fiatal nepáliak haragját. Ezen kívül a kormány iránti általános elégedetlenség, valamint a kormányzati korrupció mértéke is az utcára vitte a tüntetőket.
A tüntetők többek között „Elég volt”, „Véget kell vetni a korrupciónak”, „A korrupciót blokkoljátok, ne a közösségi médiát!” és „Fiatalok a korrupció ellen” feliratú transzparensekkel vonultak. A tüntetők között többségében fiatalok és diákok voltak, köztük sokan az iskolai egyenruhájukat viselték – írta az MTI.
Nepálban sokan úgy gondolják, hogy a korrupció virágzik, és azért is bírálják a kormányt, mert nem teljesítették az ország régóta fennálló gazdasági problémáinak megoldására tett ígéreteiket. Néhányan azt is mondták, hogy a kormány autoriter hozzáállása ellen tiltakoznak. A Reuters beszámolója szerint a tiltakozók a rendőrségi kordont áttörve a katmandui parlament épületébe is megkíséreltek betörni, felgyújtottak egy mentőautót, és tárgyakat dobáltak a rohamrendőrökre. A parlament épületénél Nepálban tilos demonstrálni, ezért a rendőrök ott szögesdrótakadályokkal tartóztatták fel a tiltakozókat.
Nepál kommunikációs minisztere, Prithvi Subba a BBC-nek azt mondta, hogy a rendőrségnek erőszakot kellett alkalmaznia a tömeg feloszlatásához, többek között vízágyúkat, könnygázt és gumilövedékeket is bevetettek. A Katmandu Civil Kórház több mint 150 sérültet fogadott be – állította az intézmény egyik szóvivője, Randzsana Nepal. „A kórházban soha nem tapasztaltam ilyen káoszt” – nyilatkozta az AFP-nek. „A könnygáz elárasztotta a helyiségeket, és megnehezítette az orvosok munkáját” – mondta.
A hétfői tüntetés után a rendőrség kijárási tilalmat vezetett be a parlament környékén. Az erőszak az este későbbi óráiban alábbhagyott, bár a tüntetők továbbra is a parlament környékén tartózkodtak.

Az amerikai Szövetségi Kommunikációs Bizottság (FCC) biztosa, Brendan Carr levélben szólította fel az Apple-t és a Google-t, hogy tiltsák ki alkalmazásboltjaikból a TikTokot. Carr szerint a népszerű kínai app nemzetbiztonsági kockázatot jelent, mert az üzemeltetők általa rálátnak az amerikai állampolgárok személyes adataira.
Carr a felszólításhoz mellékelte a BuzzFeed News korábbi anyagát, amiben a Byte Dance (ez a TikTok anyacége) 80 értekezletéről kiszivárgott hangfelvételeket elemeznek. A hanganyagokban többször is elhangzik a „szuperadmin” kifejezés, ami a cikk szerint olyan adminokat jelent, akik minden személyes adathoz hozzáférnek. De az amerikai felhasználók adataival kapcsolatban az is elhangzik, hogy „mindent látunk itt Kínában”.
A Google és az Apple egyelőre nem reagált a felszólításra, de egy ilyen levél önmagában semmire sem kötelezheti az amerikai cégeket.
Az Engadget hozzátette: néhány órával korábban a TikTok az Oracle felhőinfrastruktúrájába irányította át a teljes amerikai adatforgalmát.

Thaiföld pénteken megtiltotta a biztonságot érintő “hamis üzenetek” terjesztését, melyet azzal magyarázott, hogy ezzel csak a koronavírus-járvány kezelésével kapcsolatos kritikákat próbálja visszaszorítani.
Prayuth Chan-ocha miniszterelnök a héten azt mondta, hogy az álhírek terjedése komoly problémává vált, ami zavart okoz a társadalomban, és aláássa a kormány járványkezelésben való képességét.
Egy pénteken életbe lépett sürgősségi rendelet tiltja a hamis hírek és dezinformációk terjesztését, amelyek pánikot, félreértést vagy zavart okoznak, és “az állam biztonságát, mások jogaival való visszaélést kockáztatják, valamint a rendet vagy az erkölcsöt sértik”.
A rendelet felhatalmazza az állami szabályozó hatóságot, a Nemzeti Műsorszolgáltatási és Távközlési Bizottságot (NBTC), hogy utasítsa a szolgáltatókat, hogy blokkolják az egyes IP-címek internet-hozzáférését, ha úgy ítéli meg, hogy azok hamis híreket terjesztenek, valamint tájékoztassa a rendőrséget, hogy jogi lépéseket is tegyen.
A rendelet azután született, hogy a kormányt komoly bírálatok érték a világjárvány kezelése miatt. A tavalyi év nagy részében Thaiföldnek sikerült ugyan kordában tartania a vírust, ám a közelmúltban a delta variáns által okozott fertőzéshullám az eddigi legbrutálisabb méreteket öltötte.
A kormánynak már most is széleskörű hatásköre van a koronavírus elleni intézkedések és az internet ellenőrzésére vonatkozó szabályok végrehajtására. A hatóságok jogi lépéseket tettek néhány olyan személy ellen, köztük néhány híresség és a közösségi média influencer ellen, akik kritizálták a járvány elleni védekezést.
A Reuters értesülései szerint hat médiaszövetség közös nyilatkozatban közölte, hogy a kormány jogi lépései “a média és a nyilvánosság által élvezett szólásszabadság elnyomásának szándékát” mutatják.
