• A person commits libel if he/she, with malice, publishes a
false statement that is damaging to another person’s
reputation, office, trade, business or means of livelihood. In
the Philippine constitution, libel is a violation of Article 355 of
the Revised Penal Code. As stated in this article, libel can be
committed in the form of writing, printing, and other similar
means. If the hurtful statement is spoken, the statement is
slander.
Libel/slander

• Piracy refers to the unauthorized duplication of copyrighted
content that is then sold at substantially lower prices in the
black market. It is illegal under the Cybercrime Law, which
states that acquiring any digital copy of any copyrighted
material is punishable by fine from Php 200,000 to Php
500,000 and six to twenty years in prison. The Intellectual
Property Code and the Anti–Camcording Law were previously
