Actually, there was an episode of the "Travel Like A Boss" podcast, which is about digital nomadism, where the host and others were taken downtown by the Thai police after a raid on a co-working space. After the police found out that they were paying to do work at the co-working space on unrelated businesses and weren't being paid by the co-working space they let them go without charges [1].

I'm aware of the story. Just because Chiang Mai has chosen not to enforce the law, doesn't change the law itself.

As with all things in Thailand, what is ok today could be prohibited tomorrow.

By that logic, I was once let off on a speeding ticket, so speeding is therefor not illegal and no one should obey speed limits.. right?
