The Analysis of the Implementation of the Computer-Related Crime Act B.E. 2550
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research aimed to analyze and identify factors affecting the implementation of the Computer-Related Crime Act B.E. 2550. Samples composed of 30 relevant officials under Ministry of Digital Economy and Society, Royal Thai Police, and Department of Special Investigation, and 70 public and private Internet operators. Data collected through a reliability-tested questionnaire were analyzed via analysis of variance, analysis of covariance, and multiple regression analysis. The findings indicated that legal implementation by the authorized persons was effective at a moderate level, and factors affecting legal implementation were implementers’ behavior and legal entity structure.
