Dear Free Netizens...

I came from the future, 2 ███. [ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴇɴᴛ ʙʟᴏᴄᴋᴇᴅ.] (ʀᴀ ɴᴏ. 10175) in fact. I came here at this timeline to  change the future, a very horrible future. Where those in power cannot be touched, though cloaked in public service and good intentions, still gets away with a lot of corruption and power struggle. The internet is controlled by the government, no advertisements, no blogs, no social media. Rather they use it to provide information to its agencies. Use the high speed connections for control robots and instruct "internet bulldogs" to catch "internet vandalizers" which many people do today, but not in the future.

From the start of the "Sot ████████████. [ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴇɴᴛ ʙʟᴏᴄᴋᴇᴅ.] (ʀᴀ ɴᴏ. 10175) Law" has been passed, it was meant to help the victims of internet related crimes like child pornography and cybersex, but hidden in the law are amendments that punish people with jail time and fines which has a big loophole that can be abused. We regret not making  a stand and fight for this, we were pacified with promises of the law never to be used against innocent citizens. But after some time, we saw many of my friends disappearing one by one. Not just logged out but also missing or found in jail. Many became outraged, many went out on the streets. The people also become more furious online, hacking and defacing government websites. 

The government, made up of mostly computer-illiterate people, said that these act is rebellion against the state. First  there was news blackout in all media especially online. Other nations tried to interfere, but the government assured that they have everything in control. All news against the government is taken down and replaced with praises. It was like North Korea. Democracy became dictatorship gradually, and even Martial Law needed to be passed with both lower and upper house, it was approved so fast without appropriate deliberation. 

Yes, Martial Law cloaked in the new name called ████████████. [ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴇɴᴛ ʙʟᴏᴄᴋᴇᴅ.] (ʀᴀ ɴᴏ. 10175). It used a large part of the budget to build arms against the "rebels", control cyberspace totally, and also acquire some companies mostly utilities and media. The UN tried to interefere, but again it failed, the government got support from  ████████████. [ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴇɴᴛ ʙʟᴏᴄᴋᴇᴅ.] (ʀᴀ ɴᴏ. 10175) and ████████████. [ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴇɴᴛ ʙʟᴏᴄᴋᴇᴅ.] (ʀᴀ ɴᴏ. 10175). And though with a strong economy, it begun to decrease, but they said it is still growing (in the pockets). People became scared to go out of the streets and even online, suicide rates gone up, inflation goes up also. 

People who support internet freedom are then sentenced to life imprisonment, while corruption and murder suspects roam free. Its scares me and makes me shiver and cry while writing this, its was some time again to write in the free. Your generation is very fortunate to the pioneers of the internet. Make sure that you protect it for your children and the next generations like me. Make the internet an avenue to help people, to promote humanitarian, environmental and heritage advocacy. The ones you left us, became ruins. They did not see the power of the people and the internet combined.

Please save us from the chaotic future,

████████████. [ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴇɴᴛ ʙʟᴏᴄᴋᴇᴅ.] (ʀᴀ ɴᴏ. 10175)

DALAWANG PISO: The Stoning of the Cross Posers

do you want nails with that?

The world of the web is both nice and mostly harsh and sometimes with our daily actions that we think we can get away with it may not would be as expected. Especially this last holy week when a lot of people flew to their respective provinces or probably vacation spots especially this very long weekend.

And with most of us being busy roaming the cities and towns for Visita Iglesia, other prefer to soak up in the beaches and pools (well probably they would not be Catholics, or not really into the penitence thing). Others do both, which I also do sometimes. Because Lent is a season of solemnity, reflection and transformation (for the better), and also a time to limited TV programming, facebook notifications dropped because of less viewers and internet use.

And another viral photo became the talk of the town with several shots of people posing at the cross used in after a senakulo. The tourists then went to the cross which have a peg to stand on and made poses on it as if they were an interactive pose-on-the-cross moments. Well others feel that a jump shot is cooler.

As Easter arrived, and many went back in online has seen these pictures and became viral. Last night it was featured in the national TV news. Again, the power of social media shows its influence and most likely, the ones in the photos have seen the consequences of what they have done. And add to that the thousands of criticisms that they got from facebook and other sites.

DALAWANG PISO: Team ChicBoy and Team Higad

Babala: ang post na ito ay rated SPG (Strong Parental Guidance) hindi dahil sa hubaran, seks or violence kundi kadiri lang as in .... sobra.

Hindi pa bumababa ang init ng break up nila KC at Piolo, at ang scandalosang video ni Mo Twister at Rhian Ramos ay nagugulantang na naman ang internet world dito sa Pinas dahil sa isa na namang reklamo online ukol sa establishment na itatago natin sa pangalan na alyas 'Chicboy' at ang nagrereklamo sa facebook na itatago natin sa alyas na 'Sigrid Andrea Boromero'. 

Ayon sa kanyang pahayag sa fb, napansin niya ang isang malaking bahagi sa inorder niyang kangkong . Una inakala niya itong talong at napansin na medyo mamantika ang putahe. Ngunit matapos ang ilang sandali ay nalaman niya na ito ay isang tunay na higad/uod na naluto at nasama sa kanyang inorder na pagkain. Kaagad niya itong nireklamo ngunit hindi naging maayos ang kanilang usapan na umabot di umano sa pagpapalit ng pagkain o ibalik ang bayad. Umabot pa daw sa mga pulis ang reklamo ngunit nauwi lang ito sa mas malaking di pagkakaunawa. Nais ng complainant humingi ng paumanhin ang mga tauhan ng restaurant at i-take out ang putaheng may uod upang maging ebidensya.
