The Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012, also known as Republic Act 10175, may aim to bring crime-fighting into the 21st century by addressing harmful acts committed with the use of the worldwide web but it raises the risk of rights violations and curtailment of freedom of expression and of the press by expanding the concept of the criminalized act of libel. The law also raises the penal sentence for libel committed in cyberspace one year longer than that imposed in the Revise Penal Code for libel in general.

It is highly advisable that the imperfections in the law, the provisions that conflict with other aspects of good governance and national and international obligations, be corrected soon through amendments. Strong leadership does not shirk from acknowledging the need to revise and strengthen policy and law. The calls for amendment should not be seen as personal attacks on anyone’s character or effectiveness.

Are we so arrogant that we dare think we are on the verge of knowing everything about the universe? True intellects realize that the more we learn, the more we discover how little we know."

Am I the only one who sort of remembered Blair when Rihanna made that interview with Oprah about Chris Brown, and again when she kissed/hug CB in the VMA?

Ughhh…

Chuck and Blair are going to be living happily ever after after this hotel nonsense gets sorted out! Right?

These new pictures make no sense. I feel like this was set up on purpose. Why else would she be looking directly at the camera and not be flipping them off like she does EVERY other time? I swear this is staged.

Those popos are ninjas. They will hide behind a bush, a car, a street lamp, or a  chair, while using their cameras with super-zooming lenses to capture the perfect shots of these celebrities in their most compromising situations. Just because the subjects in the photos seems near, doesn’t mean they really are. And just because they were looking at the direction of the photog, doesn’t mean they saw him.
