00:00
Have you ever thought of posting private messages online to expose someone?
00:06
A customer who has not yet paid the order?
00:09
A neighbor who is poor and has a lot to say?
00:12
A person who is in debt but has not yet paid?
00:15
Or if not, your ex-partner who cheated?
00:20
Before you type and post anything,
00:24
do you think about the possible repercussions of what you will do?
00:30
In the digital world, we should not only think before we click,
00:34
we should also think before we post.
00:37
Because posting private things online and exposing someone
00:42
can involve you in legal and civil issues.
00:47
What are the legal and civil consequences
00:50
of posting private messages and conversations online?
00:54
Let's find out here in Emaiel 101.
01:01
Dianne, there's a lot of talk lately
01:04
about posting private conversations and messages on social media.
01:08
Are there people who are dead in the issue?
01:10
Some say that this is punishable by law,
01:12
so we should be careful.
01:14
That's true, Prof.
01:16
But it's not the only time that it becomes an issue.
01:18
The unauthorized sharing of private conversations
01:22
is often done by other online sellers or even random citizens online.
01:27
It's really important to talk about this in the digital space.
01:31
That's why we're going to talk about this here in Emaiel 101.
01:35
And to answer our curiosities and questions about this,
01:38
we have with us Atty. Ellen DeVivar.
01:41
Good morning, Atty. Ellen.
01:43
This is Dianne and Prof.
01:45
Ma'am, please turn on your audio in our V-Mix
01:50
so that we can hear you.
01:52
Okay.
01:53
Good morning.
01:55
Good morning.
01:56
Good morning, Filipinas.
01:58
Good morning.
01:59
And sorry, we mentioned that it's noisy on social media
02:03
the issue of posting and sharing private messages in public
02:07
without the consent of the parties involved.
02:10
Is this punishable by law, Atty.?
02:14
Yes.
02:15
If there's no consent and the law is not binding
02:18
and there's no investigation about a crime,
02:22
it will be punishable.
02:26
Atty. Ellen, I'm just curious.
02:28
How will those private conversations be shared?
02:32
For example, screenshots.
02:34
Her defense is similar to mine.
02:37
I was also raped.
02:39
These are proofs that I was also hurt.
02:44
I was also a victim here.
02:46
I posted it on social media.
02:48
How do we reconcile the two different opinions on this issue, Atty. Ellen?
02:55
That's where the case will go if you already filed a case.
02:58
For example, if a participant is a victim and she filed a case,
03:06
that's where the screenshots of the post should be shown.
03:10
But we shouldn't bring that to social media right away
03:13
if there's no case yet.
03:16
That's one of the exceptions.
03:18
There should be a case, an investigation on a criminal case
03:22
before we bring it to the public.
03:25
What could be the case or cases that can be filed for this kind of situation?
03:30
Because I understand, on my end, my point of view here could be libel.
03:36
Either the accuser will prove that there's no evidence
03:41
or the complainant will prove that what she's saying is true in good faith.
03:45
Atty., what could be the case here?
03:49
If there's no evidence, the participants in the chat conversation
03:55
could be accused of unauthorized processing of personal information
04:01
under the Data Privacy Act.
04:04
Or if this can damage their reputation,
04:07
they could be charged with cyber libel.
04:10
So they could be charged with oral defamation through online
04:16
or cyber libel.
04:19
In other contexts,
04:21
there are online sellers and business owners
04:26
who post their chats.
04:29
Is that also prohibited, Atty.?
04:31
You should also say goodbye to your customers.
04:35
Yes, definitely.
04:36
Because it can damage the reputation of the person.
04:39
It's not discussed in the libel if what you're saying is true or not.
04:45
Whether she's not paying or she's paying,
04:47
that's not the issue.
04:48
The issue here is that what you posted can damage the reputation of the person.
04:53
Then, the libel or cyber libel will be charged.
04:57
Okay.
04:58
How severe are the consequences that can be faced here
05:02
in terms of the cases?
05:04
How many years of imprisonment?
05:06
What's the fine?
05:07
Go ahead, Atty.
05:09
Okay.
05:10
In data privacy law,
05:12
if there's an unauthorized processing of personal data,
05:15
if it's not sensitive,
05:17
there's a fine of 1 to 3 years
05:19
and a fine of P500,000 to P2,000,000.
05:22
If the personal data is sensitive,
05:25
there's a fine of up to 6 years.
05:27
And the fine is up to P3,000,000.
05:33
That's a big fine.
05:35
In the case of cyber libel,
05:37
the imprisonment can be up to more than 6 years.
05:41
And there's also a fine or damages
05:44
if the person is asking for money.
05:47
Atty., I'm just curious.
05:49
Let's say there's a screenshot that was published
05:52
and it was shared by the public.
05:56
It was shared.
05:57
It was discussed.
05:58
There were other contents online.
06:01
Will the punishment be more severe?
06:04
Or will it be discussed in a wider scale?
06:08
Because of that post?
06:10
It depends.
06:11
It depends, ma'am.
06:12
The issue here is,
06:13
is the person being discussed identified?
06:16
Are there sensitive personal information that came out?
06:21
It still depends.
06:23
Even if it was tested,
06:25
if the person is not identifiable
06:27
or not recognized,
06:29
if it's like a blind item,
06:31
there's nothing wrong with that.
06:33
But if the person is identified,
06:35
and a lot of people know him,
06:42
then it will be included in the violations of the law.
06:47
So, Atty., should the person's name be mentioned?
06:51
Or as long as the people insinuated
06:54
that the person being heard,
06:56
or the blind item,
06:57
is this person,
06:58
that person being heard,
07:00
could file a case?
07:01
Is that so?
07:02
The person's name doesn't need to be mentioned.
07:06
If the person is identified,
07:08
even if it's a blind item,
07:09
but if the person is identified,
07:11
then it can be included in the violations of the law.
07:14
It's very descriptive.
07:16
I know that.
07:17
But what are your practical tips, Atty.?
07:20
This is not just for cases.
07:23
In different contexts,
07:25
when posting screenshots online,
07:28
when there's no consent from the parties,
07:30
what are the tips you can give?
07:33
Well, my advice to us is,
07:38
all of our rights are not absolute.
07:42
So, there are limitations.
07:44
So, before we really do things,
07:48
let's think if it can affect the rights of other people.
07:52
Because once it affects the rights of other people,
07:55
then it's no longer your rights.
07:59
So, all of our rights are not absolute.
08:02
There are some rights that are absolute,
08:05
but there are more rights that are not absolute.
08:08
All right.
08:09
Atty., what should they do
08:11
if they are the victim of an authorized sharing of private conversations?
08:17
Well, they can go to the Data Privacy Commission.
08:20
Actually, they have a website
08:22
where you can lodge a complaint.
08:24
If you fill out the form,
08:28
then you can lodge your complaint through online
08:31
through the Data Privacy Commission.
08:33
And if it's a libelous remark
08:35
or it can damage your reputation,
08:37
then you can file a complaint
08:39
to the police station,
08:41
to the prosecution office.
08:43
There.
08:44
Let's just attach our evidence to our complaint.
08:49
Well, Atty., thank you for sharing your insights about this topic.
08:53
Well, it's very simple.
08:55
For us, posting conversations online,
08:58
there are times when we shouldn't just share
09:02
and post because we don't want it to affect our reputation, right, Prof?
09:07
It can affect our emotions.
09:09
Anyway, let's remember your reasons.
09:12
In sharing, it can lead to an issue
09:15
and have a negative impact.
09:17
As we said, we can't just think before we click.
09:21
We should think before we post.
09:24
We would like to thank Atty. Ellen Divivar-Pachon.
09:27
Atty. Ellen, thank you again.
09:29
Thank you so much.
09:30
Thank you. Good morning.
