I also live in Thailand and I hope you are correct. But the fact that they can now easily buy the equipment and consulting to do this sort of thing means they might very well try it. And like I said in another comment, they don't care if it breaks the internet because they and the people they are serving don't use it like everyone else. To them the internet is little more than a major annoyance because it allows dissidents to communicate and engage in speech they don't like.
