Notification: "YOU ARE OUR PUBLIC SERVANTS"

Republic Act 10175 – Cybercrime Prevention Act was signed into law last September 12, 2012 and went live October 3,2012. Today, is the first day of Cybercrime Law Act.


Right now, I'm thinking to maybe, just maybe, be careful of what I'm going to write else, NBI, DOJ and PNP will be knocking on my door handling me a warrant of arrest.

Here are the 17 Cybercrimes covered under Cybercrime Prevention Act – Republic Act 10175. Number 13 talks about libel wherein writing, printing, lithography, engraving, radio, phonograph, painting, theatrical exhibition, cinematographic exhibition, or any similar means, shall be punished by prision correccional in its minimum and medium periods or a fine ranging from 200 to 6,000 pesos, or both, in addition to the civil action which may be brought by the offended party. WOW!

Obviously, government officials are trying to protect themselves with this Bill.

Until now, the senate denies and point fingers to who inserted this part on the said Republic Act.

Let's take a look at

The 1987 Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines
Article III
Bill of Rights
Section 4. No law shall be passed abridging the freedom of speech, of expression, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances.

What's the punishment for violating this?

There are many laws that needs to be passed. What happened to RHBILL, FOI BILL, and SINTAX BILL?

The country is facing many problems. What are you, government officials, doing? 

Please don't forget, YOU ARE OUR PUBLIC SERVANTS!

We have the right to voice out what we want since we are the one who put you in the office and we are the one paying taxes.

Right now, Sotto and Carabuena maybe laughing hard. I just imagine.. 

Braze yourselves.. 
The search is on for the first person to be jailed from the Cyber Crime Law in the Philippines...

40 Years Ago.. and 40 Years After..

September 21, 1972, President Ferdinand E. Marcos placed the Philippines under Martial Law. The declaration issued under Proclamation 1081.

I was born 1982. Still under the Martial Law. I am a Martial Law baby.

My brother on the other hand is an EDSA 1 baby.

Now, my nephew is an e-martial law baby.

FOI Bill, RH Bill and Sin Tax Bill were not yet signed.

RA 10175 contradicts to our freedom of speech. Any negative post against a person can now be considered as libel. Hello, Online Martial Law! Or I should say E-MARTIAL LAW.
