A controversial internet law that gives the government power
to regulate online content takes effect Wednesday, with rights
groups saying the move is aimed at stifling dissent.

Decree 147 expands government control over access to information
on the internet for reasons of "national security" and "social
order."

The law requires social media platforms providing services to
users in Vietnam to store user data and provide it to authorities
on demand.

The government issued the decree this November, and it
requires organizations to take down anything the authorities
consider "illegal content" within 24 hours.
