PETITIONS AGAINST THE ANTI-CYBER CRIME LAW

Since its passage, Republic Act No. 10175 or otherwise known as the “Anti Cyber Crime Law”has been the subject of debates. The so-called “netizens” and other numerous advocacy groups have been very vocal against certain provisions of the new law which according to them are violative of the freedom of expression, right to privacy, right to due process, and such other rights enshrined in the Constitution.


As of this date, a number of petitions challenging the constitutionality of the law have been filed and pending before the Supreme Court. To have a glimpse of these petitions and the particular issues raised therein and to listen or download the audio recordings of the oral arguments held at the High Court, click here.
