Cybercrime Law
The Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012, officially recorded as Republic Act No. 10175,
is a law in the Philippines that was approved on September 12, 2012. It aims to address
legal issues concerning online interactions and the Internet in the Philippines. Which
completely address crimes committed against and by means of computer system on 12
September 2012. It includes penal substantive rules, procedural rules and also rules on
international cooperation. The draft Strategy includes a vital multi-year cybercrime
data/statistics based on official reports, actual operations, information and research, as
well as analysis thereof, which were received from concerned agencies, such as the
National Bureau of Investigation – Cybercrime Division (NBI-CCD) and the Philippine
National Police – Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP-ACG). In addition, Section 6 thereof
provides that all crimes defined and penalized by the Revised Penal Code, as
amended, and special laws, if committed by, through and with the use of information
and communications technologies shall be covered by the relevant provisions of
Revised Penal Code: Provided, That the penalty to be imposed shall be one (1) degree
higher than that provided for by the Revised Penal Code, as amended, and special
laws, as the case may be. Furthermore, Section 7 thereof provides that prosecution
under the Cybercrime law shall be without prejudice to any liability for violation of any
provision of the Revised Penal Code, as amended, or special laws.
The effects of this law in our community have largely can benefits through children to
elder. By using this law, we ensure that using internet or browsing can much safer. To
those people that engaging with this kind of crime will punish by the law. Even in our
community felt safer. As of now, I could say that this law doesn’t apply properly and after
many years many children become victim of cybercrime.

The best way to manage this issue is to make the internet more safety like one phone
number, one account to all social media acc and must register into national if incase that
we need to detect the wrong doings. Proper educating our child is the primary needs of
our society. Lack of knowledge in social media can cause damage to everyone. We must
employ some seminar about cybercrime and how we stop this crime in our home.
Sometimes the victims are those in our house.
