The Cyber Scouts is a Thai state-sponsored youth-based online vigilante network that has been characterized as fascist. It was founded in 2010 and currently operates under the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society. The program trains high school and university students nationally in ultra-royalist ideology via workshops. Its two main objectives are indoctrinating Thai youth with ultra-royalist values and creating a youth-based nationwide network dedicated to detecting and reporting lèse-majesté violations through online surveillance.
