Social and political criticisms
From GMA news
Brother, are you still a fence sitter on the RA 10175 (the anti cybercrime act of 2012)? Think again.
How could such a law be passed without close scrutiny by the Senators, and even by the large staff of the office of the President? How come the libel clause was inserted without the benefit of public hearing?
And you know what, your penalty could be up to Pl,000,000 and up to 12 years in jail? Even if you just liked a post that is deemed libelous?
One of the things that you can do is to remember the author of the bill: Sen Angara, and the one who inserted the libel provision, and those who voted for the law. Even the Prez voted the questionable law hastily?
Sen Guingona objected to the law.
