Because of the recent uploading of the Scandal Video of Janelle Manahan and Ramgen Revilla I decided to make a post about the consequences for Uploading Video Scandals.

Uploading Video Scandals is a crime in the Philippines

To all those people who spreads, shares, distribute a video scandal on the web will be legally responsible for defying the Republic Act 9995, or also known as the Anti-Photo and Video Voyeurism Act of 2009 specifically the Section 4. A lot of people are much aware already about this bill because of the Video Scandals of Hayden Kho with Katrina Halili, Maricar Reyes and a Brazilian Model.

To give you more understanding about this bill, here is the Section 4 of Republic Act 9995, or the Anti-Photo and Video Voyeurism Act of 2009.

Section 4. Prohibited Acts. - It is hereby prohibited and declared unlawful for any person:

(a) To take photo or video coverage of a person or group of persons performing sexual act or any similar activity or to capture an image of the private area of a person/s such as the naked or undergarment clad genitals, public area, buttocks or female breast without the consent of the person/s involved and under circumstances in which the person/s has/have a reasonable expectation of privacy;

(b) To copy or reproduce, or to cause to be copied or reproduced, such photo or video or recording of sexual act or any similar activity with or without consideration;

(c) To sell or distribute, or cause to be sold or distributed, such photo or video or recording of sexual act, whether it be the original copy or reproduction thereof; or

(d) To publish or broadcast, or cause to be published or broadcast, whether in print or broadcast media, or show or exhibit the photo or video coverage or recordings of such sexual act or any similar activity through VCD/DVD, internet, cellular phones and other similar means or device.

So guys we are now aware about this bill and you should just avoid Uploading Video Scandals on the net, because you might just end up in jail.
