CONCLUSION

The cybercrime prevention Act of 2012, officially recorded as Republic Act No. 10175, is a law in the
Philippines approved on September 12,2012. It aims to address legal issues concerning online
interactions and the internet in the Philippines. Among the cybercrime offences included in the bill are
cybersquatting, cybersex, child pornography, identity theft, illegal access to data and label.

(1) Cybersex. — The willful engagement, maintenance, control, or operation, directly or indirectly, of any

Cybersex numbs consciousness and conscience

Sensitivity is disregarded. The person is given limitless freedom and not bound to any responsibility
by any norms. An outcome that is on par with this is physical and emotional instability. Exercise, proper
nourishment, and sleep slip away as the person becomes so engrossed in the sexual encounter. Thus,
other areas of life are forgotten, like time with family, spiritual activities, and relationships with people
around.

Cybersex is morally unacceptable on a general scale because all adults with fully functional moral and
mental faculties would not like to have their children or other people's children exposed to the same
