CYBERCRIME LAW

Chita Nepomuceno

The trending issue about the Cyber crime Law which is familiarly known as   Republic Act No. 10175 (http://www.gov.ph/2012/09/12/republic-act-no-10175/) became the talk for everyone especially for most users of the social networking sites.

To tell you honestly I really admired the creation of the law about cyber crime since it protects the social media users mostly but still I can’t just held it that it may put everyone’s opinions in an unlawful act and isn't this against to the section 4 of article III Bill of Rights of the 1987 Constitution that say, “ 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.”(http://www.chanrobles.com/article3.htm#.UGw2hk3MgZ4)
