Sorry bro, what you said is a perfect example of your so called "freedom of speech"

lisud e implement ang libel sa online. why? lisud dakpon...what if ang ga defame sa tawo is anonymous. Or a ghost. Unsaon man nimo pag gamit sa law ana. Useless gihapon.

applicable ba pud ni sa patay, like libelous imong comment sa tao nga patay na?

Sorry for the wall post.



a.) Torrent




Illegal sharing and downloading of copyrighted or patented materials are violations to section 6 above under "special laws" provision. One of the country's special laws is Intellectual Property Code (RA 8293) which is already existed to penalize the abovementioned violation. The penalty to Sec. 6 will be 1 degree higher than that provided for by the special law which means if the criminal penalty of imprisonment from that special law ranges from two (2) years to five (5) years, the actual penalty then becomes three (3) years to six (6) years. Not just that... Section 7 of this law states that




which means the person charged will not be spared from the liability of this Act against the liability from that special law (Intellectual Property Code). Now this becomes double jeopardy! ! !


Total years of imprisonment = [three (3) years to six (6) years] (from RA 10175) + [two (2) years to five (5) years] (from RA 8293)



b.) liking a fb (libel?) comment





Why add online libel when we already have libel provision under Art. 355 of RPC? We'll start on how it is committed. Libel constitutes 4 elements:

(a) imputation of a discreditable act or condition to another;
(b) publication of the imputation;
(c) identity of the person defamed; and,
(d) existence of malice.


"and may be committed by means of writing, printing, lithography, engraving, radio, phonograph, painting, theatrical exhibition, cinematographic exhibition, or any similar means". 'any similar means' here is vague. And adding libel provision in this Act under Sec. 4(c)(4) now answers the question what 'any similar means' means. It is the internet -- the current medium of information other than printing, writing, etc.

Posting libelous or false accussations in email, fb, twitter, blogs, and other social media are tantamount to violation of Sec. 4(c)(4). Again, the one who violates this clause will be penalized by 1 degree higher than that provided for by the Revised Penal Code -- the same logic of penalty with downloading torrents.


And surprise -- it does not stop there. Sec. 5 of this Act states that



which means people or individual who like, re-post, retweet, re-publish or share a libelous statement maybe held liable in violation of Sec. 5. When someone file a libel lawsuit and have substantial evidence against any person and if the DOJ through the Sec. of Justice made prima facie finding, he/she has the sweep power to restrict or block that libelous content under Sec. 19 of this Act.

nag nose bleed ko.

YESTERDAY...... I lived in a free country.

[salbahis]

I know who but I will never mention any name too. But I will give you these surprises.







No, I want the entire law repealed and have a new, better-crafted one where legislators will consult to the community (IT, Academe and lawyers) due to subjects they aren't expert of, which happens to be this law.

why change the whole vehicle of the problem is just wheel... mao rana ako comment... for what you guys want is a waste if time when a single provision can be removed and not everything... if you trully understand all the provision then explained it in your own words...
