00:00What is this Anti-Photo and Video Voyeurism Act of 2009?
00:08This is Republic Act No. 9995.
00:11It aims to protect the privacy of each individual
00:14by prohibiting the collection, copying, and distribution of private photos and videos without permission.
00:23What are the prohibited activities here?
00:25First, taking a photo or video of a person's private activity or private part of the body without permission.
00:36Second, copying or reproducing such photos or videos without the authorization of an individual or consent.
00:45Third, selling, distributing, or broadcasting such materials without the consent of an individual.
00:55Oh my, this is being criticized a lot, not only in the Video Voyeurism Act of 2009.
01:00Because if you are violating the privacy of a person,
01:05you can also violate it in the Data Privacy Act of 2012 or Republic Act 10173.
01:12Of course, this is also a crime.
01:15This can also be a violation in the RA 10175 on Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012.
01:22Not only that, if you broadcast a video that we made malicious,
01:30that can also be a violation of the libel or cyber libel.
01:33Oh my, there can be a lot of violations if you make a video like this and you were caught.
01:39As for the punishment, you can be imprisoned from here in the Republic Act 9995 for 3 to 7 years.
01:47And the fine is a minimum of Php 100,000 to Php 500,000.
01:54It still depends on what will be the court's decision and how heavy the case will be.
02:01What are the important points of the law?
02:03The law stipulates the cases where a person is allowed to take a private photo or video,
02:10but he is not allowed to spread it or publish it.
02:15That's different if you two made a video, but spreading it is not included.
02:21There are several cases where a partner has consent to take a video,
02:26but it is not shared online, so the man was punished.
02:31Those who upload or send scandal videos online can also be counted here.
02:37Oh my, there are a lot of people who say,
02:39I'm going to get in trouble, I'm going to ask for a video.
02:41Oh my, let's not do that, let's not put the letter L first.
02:46We need to be human, we have our own lives,
02:51and it's not good to feel that we're taking someone else's life.
02:55Well, RA 9995 also gives the importance of compliance when it comes to taking and sharing private photos and videos.
03:05The violation here is that there is a heavy punishment that shows the need and the right to privacy of each individual.
03:17Oh my, it's like MIA 101.
03:20But that's the gender-related law that we brought to you this morning here on G-Terms.
