carrd: https://junkterrorbill.carrd.co/ ">https://junkterrorbill.carrd.co/">...
the philippines government is on the verge of enacting a counterterrorism law that will eliminate critical legal protections and permit government overreach against groups and individuals labeled terrorists.
the draft anti-terrorism act of 2020 passed both the house of representatives and the senate, and president rodrigo duterte is expected to quickly sign the bill into law.
the law uses a broad definition of terrorism that can subject suspects, apprehended without a warrant, to weeks of detention prior to an appearance before a judge. this definition is so broad that anyone can be labeled a terrorist. this includes saying anything bad abt the gov.
the draft law also makes it a criminal offense to “incite others” to commit terrorism “by means of speeches, proclamations, writings, emblems, banners or other representations tending to the same end.” this includes the usage of social media.
