The right to privacy is guaranteed in the Philippine Bill of Rights and other laws but was repeatedly violated in the two cases. While Ruby consented to making three out of the four intimate videos that circulated on the web, and Martha agreed to have her photos taken, neither one consented to the uploading of the materials to the internet, and definitely not to their proliferation in various internet sites. In the third case, the children were exposed to an unsafe and unhealthy environment at a tender age. They were forced to earn some income for their families, and were made to feel responsible for helping provide financially. They feared reporting the abuse because their own families were involved. Those rescued by law enforcers were taken away from their families and friends and placed under the custody of the Social Welfare department, including those whose parents were not involved in cyber-pornography. Separation from family can be traumatic. Equally disturbing was the practice to force the children to watch pornography as a prelude to the act of performing in front of the computer. A psychologist testifying in court said, “sustained exposure to pornography leads to serious psychological disorders in minors” which will set in later in their lives. There may be not be manifestations among the victims yet, but there is evidence that boys exposed to pornography become increasingly aggressive when they become adults, while girls become more tolerant of emotional, psychological and sexual abuse, making them believe that violence is normal behavior. 3.

Both sought help from the National TBureau of Investigation to track and determine the identities of the perpetrators. In Ruby’s case, the sex video taken by her former doctor-boyfriend was uploaded to a US-based web hosting site, thus the NBI had to secure a court order from the United States. An Anti-VAWC case was filed in a regional trial court but was later dismissed because of insufficiency of evidence. She also filed another case seeking the revocation of her ex-boyfriend’s medical license. <End Violence: Women’s Rights and Safety Online> 11
