SPDC’s new target: Burmese citizens’ emails

BDD Saturday, September 20, 2008
Sources close to regime said that SPDC Science and Technology Minister U Thaung reportedly instructed IT department officials to create the data bank of Burmese citizens' email addresses worldwide. This is not a new instruction but he had in 2006. U Thaung was very interested in getting Burmese political activists’ email addresses since he became a minister of S&T.

Burmese military officers who graduated in computer science from Moscow Institute of Electronic Technology were assigned in Cyber city which in near Mandalay to get more information from websites.

That wasn't clear recent DDoS attack against Irrawaddy and DVB websites were from his ministry or other foreign based hackers. But insider said U Thaung’s pet projects has already developed the softwares that could hack the Burmese citizens’ email addresses to attack the different people and political activists to create more confusion within own citizens.

Sources said that others should not under estimate the senior general Than Shwe’s psychological warfare tactics, he could use his tactics to create more confusion and get more upper hand for SPDC.

Now regime has extended new political battle through cyber warfare against the independent media from urban warfare against Buddhist monks, NLD, 88 generation groups and rest of the citizens, and other rural suppression against the ethnics.

Main Target for this time is private citizens’ emails to use as a tool to attack the political activists and others. Nobody knows regime would target Western security agencies and government websites.
