00:00Oh my God, did you get an OMG on that shook selfie?
00:12But did you get an OMG on the crowd?
00:16Me too!
00:17Yesterday was the last day of filing the Certificate of Candidacy of those who want to run for the election 2025.
00:25And we will just wait for the official list of candidates.
00:30But it looks like the situation is different now because aside from the traditional way of campaigning,
00:36there are also many online platforms that can be used.
00:40And there are also many famous online people who have signed up for their candidacy.
00:47What does the law say about this?
00:50Ask me, ask Attorney Gappy.
00:55Attorney, there are certain limitations in campaigning.
00:59But what does the law say when it comes to online campaigning?
01:03Especially for influencers who often livestream or post vlogs,
01:08can this also be a limitation in the campaign period?
01:12Well, even if it's hard to think that it can be done,
01:16Comelec will actually monitor and monitor social media in the upcoming 2025 elections.
01:23There is Comelec Resolution No. 11064,
01:27a new effort to regulate social media,
01:31especially since there is a high possibility of fake news,
01:35misinformation and disinformation campaigns,
01:38using bots and troll armies on social media and other digital platforms.
01:45Artificial Intelligence or AI technology will also monitor the use.
01:50You already know that if there is an AI, it will be able to control everything.
01:55The dead are alive, those who do not dance are dancing,
01:59rallies and speeches are held that did not happen.
02:03So it will require authentication of all the materials that will be used.
02:08Deepfakes, cheapfakes, softfakes and all fakes are prohibited.
02:13Fake and unregistered social media accounts are also prohibited.
02:18All pages and social media sites must be registered.
02:25So for the netizens who share and comment about their opinions,
02:30about online issues, especially those related to running,
02:34when can they say that they are violating the law?
02:37Actually, that's a good question and it's very difficult to answer.
02:41Maybe even Comelec is thinking about how to monitor all those on social media,
02:47especially those individuals who are the only ones who express their opinions and teachings.
02:54Freedom of expression is still alive and well.
02:57But if you remember, in the last elections, we saw the use of social media.
03:03Suddenly, the instrument of opinion is getting stronger.
03:07The opinion of people is really affected, for right or for wrong.
03:11There are many individuals who, even at first, do not seem to be officially for a candidate,
03:16but over time, it gets stronger, there are more followers of trolls,
03:22and votes also become a strong influencer.
03:25Comelec will monitor these social media influencers.
03:29So we also don't know if Comelec will really monitor and ban it.
03:34If we remember the traditional form before,
03:36the posters should be limited where it will be posted,
03:40but it's still widespread.
03:42But this one, social media is more widespread.
03:46Theoretically, under Resolution 11604,
03:50Comelec can request to take down these posts and pages.
03:55Comelec will also partner with the BIR to find out who is being paid by the candidates,
04:02by the influencers, and of course, how much they will be paid.
04:06Hopefully, there will be an opportunity for these people to monitor.
04:10The campaign is already on social media,
04:12and there are so many fake news and rumors that are happening,
04:16that are being spread and made true by trolls and bots,
04:20and any other nonsense.
04:22So think before you click,
04:24and think carefully about your choices for our candidates.
04:29For peace of mind,
04:32don't think twice.
04:34Ask me, ask Atty. Gaston.
