Thailand is well known for its heavily censored Internet. The Ministry of Information and Communications Technology (MICT) has frequently announced the large number (thousands) of blocked websites as its major achievement.

Normally, a visit to government-blocking website via Thai internet service providers (ISP) will redirect to a government's landing page with the message "this site has been blocked". The styles of these landing pages are varied to government agencies that take charge (e.g. MICT or the police).
