This cybercrime law is a way too far.

I believe that this Cybercrime law aims to prevent online crimes but it just way too over that even a mere “facebook like” could constitute libel and it might send you to jail.

Not everyone is this country is aware to what constitute libel, it is quiet harsh to put an individual in jail for just uncaringly reposting or re-tweeting libelous material on the internet. This law really hits our freedom of speech. Freedom of Information is still pending on the Congress which supposed to help our problems in corruption as it gives transparency to any controversy, while this cybercrime law favors politicians as it is can be used to silence political critics on the internet. Now, instead of government transparency, this law seeks to silence vigilant individual making critics in the internet.
