Is this akin to Thailand's lese-majesty or more broader? Seems backwards!

My guess is that lese-majesty is already illegal in Malaysia. The issue as I understand it is that this changes the burden of proof and broadens responsibility for such crimes and this is the big issue.

Imagine if someone accessed your unsecured wireless network and downloaded child pornography, and that absent evidence that you never did it, that was considered sufficient evidence to convict. That's the concern I see on this web site and it is scary. I hope it doesn't pass.
