Palace: Up to Congress to amend cyber law
By Aurea Calica (The Philippine Star) | Updated December 2, 2012 - 12:00am
MANILA, Philippines - Malacañang is giving lawmakers a free hand to amend the Cybercrime Prevention Act or Republic Act 10175, the implementation of which was stopped by the Supreme Court (SC).
Deputy presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte said members of Congress should decide which provisions in the law must be changed.
The law became controversial because of online libel and other provisions that various sectors said would curtail freedom of expression.
As the SC decided to issue a temporary restraining order against its implementation, presidential spokesman Edwin Lacierda said it should be a signal to Congress to amend the law.
President Aquino said the Cybercrime Law was meant to protect citizens.
“There are those who commit crimes using the Internet and this seeks to codify or to put into law precisely that these activities are illegal and set the basis for prosecuting those who would use the Internet for wrong purposes,” Aquino told students of The Learning Tree Child Growth Center Inc. last Tuesday.

“The Bible tells us even in the Garden of Eden there was a snake. So the Internet is really such a fantastic tool in the sense that when you look for information, and assuming you know where to look…there are a lot of people who put things on the net that actually are nonsense. But if you know how to look for the right stuff, instead of going through a library and really scouring all of the volumes that you would need (to find) the answer, it’s just a few clicks of the mouse away,” he said.
Aquino said the Cybercrime Law seeks to protect the identity of the user.
