Hello,I am now concern that if an editor posted something that is not favorable to a known personality, even its supported by facts and sources, that known personality will just file a complaint over the Department of Justice to block access to the said article. Even the act is just Prima facie.http://www.interaksyon.com/infotech/takedown-clause-in-cybercrime-law-very-dangerous-lawyers-sayRoman Bustria Jr.WMPHOn Sun, Sep 23, 2012 at 1:11 AM, Andreas Kolbe <jayen466@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi all.Wikimedia does ask for donations. I am not sure whether that could be construed as asking "for favor or consideration". How would it be for a pornographic website that relies on voluntary donations? That is the worst-case comparison someone could draw.On Commons, the most frequently viewed files certainly have been, almost without exception, sexual media:On the other hand, compared to all the other content on Commons (and also, I suspect, the total number of page views), these files are a very small minority.I will mention two of my longstanding gripes here:1. None of the Wikimedia projects comply with 18 USC 2257 age record requirements.http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikilegal/Age_Record_Requirement (also see talk page).2. Given that Wikimedia projects contain some pretty extreme materials, fundraiser materials should not contain testimonials (stories) stating or implying that Wikimedia projects are child-safe.AndreasOn Fri, Sep 21, 2012 at 11:33 PM, Geoff Brigham <gbrigham@wikimedia.org> wrote:
Interesting. I saw that as a type of anti-prostitution provision since it requires "for favor or consideration".On Fri, Sep 21, 2012 at 3:15 PM, Pierre-Carl Langlais <pierre-carl.langlais@orange.fr> wrote:
Hello,I have given a quick look to the bill. It's difficult to draw definite conclusions : the signification of the text greatly depends on the present state of several fields of Philippine legislation (on libel for instance).I have nevertheless some concerns about the c1 paragraph of the fourth section defining the crime of cybersex : « The willful engagement, maintenance, control, or operation, directly or indirectly, of any lascivious exhibition of sexual organs or sexual activity, with the aid of a computer system, for favor or consideration. » I may be wrong, but the enforcement of this paragraph could potentially prevent the diffusion of explicit encyclopedic photographies and illustrations on sexual topics.Pierre-Carl Langlais aka Alexander DoriaHi Roman,
I really appreciate your sharing this with us. Is it possible you could give a brief summary to give us a gist of your concerns about the bill? Fully understand if you may be to busy to do that.
Thanks,

can get useful feedback from the open list, too.
