The Philippine Medical Association, albeit not directly involved in Ruby’s case, suspended the medical doctor for two years for “conduct offensive to the profession.”The Professional Regulatory Commission revoked the doctor’s license, citing “immorality and dishonorable and/or unethical conduct offensive to the profession” considering that Ruby used to be one of his patients. (The PRC reinstated his license in 2014 following what it said was a prescribed two-year waiting period to re-apply for a license). Because the case involved a TV personality and a celebrity doctor, it attracted a lot of publicity and drew support from some senators who initiated an inquiry into what one legislator described as an act of exploitation. Martha’s case involved fewer people and took a shorter time to resolve because the Anti-Photo and Video Voyeurism Act was already in place then (which was not the case when Ruby sought redress). One day after the uploading and spreading of Martha’s photos, her legal counsel issued public demand letters to news networks, bloggers, Yahoo which has office in the Philippines, and Facebook to remove the private photos from their sites. The public demand letter carried a warning to the public that Martha is represented by a lawyer and would file a case if the photos were spread further and not taken down. The legal counsel cited the Anti-Photo and Video Voyeurism Act. Bloggers and news networks took down or blurred the photos within 24 hours upon receipt of the public demand letter. The case of child cyber-pornography in Cordova was more complicated as it involved not just a single individual but several minors who were coerced to pose naked in front of a webcam. It also involved the Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force that conducted raids on houses suspected of running cyber-pornography operations, based on reports from the community. Complaints were reported to the nearest police station, local social welfare office, or the barangay office. Witnesses signed affidavits attesting to the veracity or knowledge of the case. Rescued children were placed under the custody of Social Welfare Department and its Child Rights Protection Unit talked to the children about their experiences. The cases were also referred to local NGOs that provide legal assistance. 12 <End Violence: Women’s Rights and Safety Online>
