What are the challenges of applying for a Thai visa remotely instead of in person?

The discussion revolves around the notion of applying for a Thai visa remotely by exploiting the capability of driver licenses to show a "current location". Comments emphasize the risks of attempting to deceive the Thai government, highlighting the importance of honesty in the application process. It's suggested that applicants who are not in Thailand should use the consulate services available in their current location. For those already in Thailand, it's advised to avoid deceit and instead plan to obtain a visa by traveling to a neighboring country or directly to the embassy.
