NTC says proposed ban applies only to child-**** sites
By Bong Lozada

MANILA, Philippines—The memorandum issued by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) on Jan. 30, 2014 proposes the banning in the Philippines of access to websites containing child ****ographic materials.

Earlier reports said that NTC has proposed the blockage of all ****ographic sites in the Philippines and asked the country’s Internet Service Providers (ISP) to install a program to prevent such access. The ISPs have not yet responded to the NTC proposal.

According to the memorandum, ISP’s would submit to the three “carrier-grade technology” solutions to the Inter-Agency Council Against Child ****ography (IACACP) for evaluation.

Once the IACACP approves of the list, the ISP could now purchase from suppliers the technology that would halt the access to websites containing child ****.

Also, the NTC would be the one to finalize the list of banned websites that the IACACP provided to the ISPs for immediate blocking.
The proposed ban has sparked a buzz in social media, with a number of netizens expressing disbelief on the proposal.
One newspaper reporter said that there is no need for such provision as there are already existing software programs that could block one’s access to such sites.

“There’s no need for such actions, there’s more to ****ography than just the ‘morality issue,’” he said. “If they find it immoral and wish to block access to it, several applications have already got it covered.”

“But to make legal actions to permanently close **** sites means killing an industry, which like others, creates a lot of jobs.”

An analyst programmer for one of the country’s largest banks said that if **** sites are blocked, people would have to be more “resourceful and creative” to achieve such lengths of watching ****.

“If such action would be imposed, there would be more hackers and a larger rape count.”
One Netizen said that NTC’s proposal is “hypocrisy at its finest.”

There is a danger once the ISPs start blocking specific sites. It may be the start of web-censorship and it will definitely not stop just at ****. Example, it can selectively block a certain political canditate's web sites while letting a more favored candidate's website go unhindered or even promoted by automatically redirecting web traffic to them.
