Singapore blocks 10 inauthentic websites set up by foreign actors

The Singaporean government has blocked 10 inauthentic websites set up by foreign actors that could be used to mount hostile information campaigns (HICs) against the country.

The Home Affairs Ministry (MHA) and Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) said these websites masquerade as local websites by spoofing or using terms associated with Singapore in their domain names and incorporating familiar local features and visuals.
