Vietnam's Force 47 is run by the Ministry of Public Security (MPS) to hack anti-government websites and spread pro-government messages online, and is believed to be at least 10,000-strong.
Anh Chi, the pen name of 46-year-old Nguyen Chi Tuyen, knows the ministry's tactics well. He has created videos criticising Force 47, and has expressed concern about the impact of a new cyber-law [aljazeera.com] that came into effect at the beginning of the month.
Vietnam is said to be following China's lead in policing its citizens speech online. Is this going to become the global norm?
