<div>Hi all,</div><div> </div><div>I am just sharing about what's going on my turf. Apparently the Philippine Government passed a CyberCRime Prevention Act - well, I suppose that's good against hacking, identity theft and spamming. But there's a provision on online libel that's pretty getting on every Filipino's nerves.Anything that you would post, for instance, in Facebook criticizing anybody is considered libel. This also includes sharing or liking a post or picture. Just to show that sometimes politicians have no business making laws they know nothing much. Here's a news story from Forbes below:</div>
