CyberCrimes are no longer illegal in Afghanistan anymore as the government itself is invading the civilian’s privacy.
Beijing has dispatched its top communications experts to Kabul to demonstrate to the Taliban how to intercept conversations on landlines and mobile networks and monitor internet and social media usage.
According to Western intelligence sources, the goal will be to prevent rebellions from being organized on social media, as happened during the Arab Spring across the Middle East.
Taliban leaders are afraid that groups like the National Resistance Front and women’s rights activists will gain widespread support, so protests have already been banned. Two journalists were beaten by the Taliban last week for covering protests.
