Was anyone harmed? Sad to say, yes. In fact, several entities have been harmed by it. He has also been criticized for not owing and apologizing personally for what he did. Second, the person from whom the idea he plagiarized. Third, the Senate where Sotto is a member of. Lastly, the people, to whom Sen. Sotto swore to serve with integrity and honesty. The people that sees him as the embodiment of what is right and proper in government. The people who entrusted their fate and confidence in him who strongly believes of his dedication to serve them with utmost confidence and trust.
He represents them. But not on this one. It is all his own. As a plagiarist, he has only himself to blame. But make no mistakes about it, both acts deserve condemnation and must be dealt with accordingly. Those who buy pirated digital recordings violates the law. As a senator of the Republic, what he did was reprehensible and unbecoming of a senator.
Yes, I remember Ronald Llamas. But unlike Llamas, Sotto is in a good situation. In spite of the embarrassment and shame he got from it I still believe that Sotto will be able to survive this scandal. He plagiarized and fooled them. He did it behind their backs and they have everything to do with it? He was also a host in low-brow exploitation variety shows like Eat Bulaga and espoused mendicant values in sitcoms like Iskul Bukol.
Yet he was elected Senator by the popular vote. While I despise how Sotto reacted after he was caught plagiarizing, the blogger also mishandled or at worse capitalize on the misdeed. He could have just informed the senator discretely, asked that his work be cited in the published version of the speech, or reflect on the bigger picture. What is his bottom line in writing that blog anyway? The blogger should look at the bigger picture rather than personal interest in this matter.
I think the issue got blown up when Sotto insulted all bloggers. Of course, they are others who use blogs for commercial purposes. RH Bill? How do the two plagiarisms differ? This one is for you. The criteria for fair use is almost identical to the fair use doctrine in United States copyright law, with the exception that even unpublished works qualify as fair use under Philippine copyright law.
Fair use is an infringement defense when the defendant reproduced a copyrighted work for purposes such as criticism, commentary, teaching and research. The defense is analyzed on a case-by-case basis. Section also sets out four factors to be considered in determining whether or not a particular use is fair:. The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes:. Trosp, with due respect a word you seem not familiar with , your kilometric post clarified nothing.
Just go down to the specifics. What is it really that you want to say? Can you plainly, simply and calmly point out what it is? Once there is this idiot commenter in this blog who was posting his comments using different names because he did not want his comments deleted or spammed. He did not even consider that there are also other commenters who could have the same name as his. I can just let the facts do the talking.
Pero sa mga bobo, katulad ni fishball, facts does not count. I also see that facts bored you. Napipikon ka. You love to dish dirt but you cannot take it? For someone who admitted that he intentionally do acts para lang ipahiya ang kapwa mo poster, mukhang ikaw ang napapahiya ngayon, bata. Yes, I was forced to use different names and explained it already. An admission was made as who prevented me and the issue was settled amicably.
So why are you bringing it back again? Am I using another name again? Am I violating any rule here? You will never know what you are talking about when you are enjoying your immunity from being stopped, however disrespectful you are on the board. What I mind is, butting it for the purpose of trolling; of offending; of making trouble like what you are doing now. Your posts are based on facts?
Your posts should speak for you Trosp. Not the other way around. My comment about you is not an off-topic. You as a commenter on this blog. Kaya nga lang old issue na according to you. Pero the facts that went with it remains.
My face-off with their pomposities. That is what was happening in our country. That term is also connected to another term called mob mentality, which you want to glorify.
The crux of my argument is your previous comment: — Trosp —— Why will you do that when I already showed you what Daido said about the media to prove you did not comprehend his point? Speaking of the media Trosp, read that, the media ha? People blamed GMA because the media O, another the media! While the media here it is again, Trosp! Those controversies from the past admin?
They were just sensationalized by the biased media Biased daw o! Ang tindi! Did he commented he want the media out? Is exposing your idiocy bullying? This is aside from accusing me of having a special privilege in commenting here heh.
You called me bobo, idiot, tanga, etc. Swerte ka spoiled ka dito sa blog na ito. I always comment with facts to support my claim.
Just calling you bobo etc. But sadly, I have not seen any. Swerte ka, ka-chokaran mo si benign0. Dito ka na lang, safe ka pa. Protected and assured of continued existence.
No matter how boring it is. I look at myself in the mirror and the one I see is what is in my avatar — no more no less. Here read what you said on this example. That is what you claimed without the benefit of supporting it with facts.
Actually, what you said was opposite to what Daido really said. No problem with calling out people if they commit something worth calling out. That you feel inferior to them. Why resort to verbal violence and be a blog bully? I hate them and nobody can stop me from expressing my hate. People who hate are incapable of objectivity. How can you be objective with people whom you labeled pompous because you hate them? Hate equals lie. Hey, sugarcoated things are more like a lie than hating. Ummm, let me look how this loser has commented last time when he badmouthed everybody in this blog….
The only thing you can do to justify what you are doing actually trolling! Is that the kind of maturity you have? Buti ka nga hindi pinipigilan dito. Nobody can stop or even dare to stop you with your bullying tactics.
Whatever you say, okay lang. Ako, wala akong tinawag na gago, idiot, tanga, etc. Elucidate, explain and clarify whatever you want to say, either be it accusing, explaining or just narrating. Matanda ka na based on your picture , ipaliwanag mo ang sarili mo. Huwag mong daanin sa init ng ulo. In my book, I call it idiocy. You are right, you are rehashing an old and settled issue. Long story short, I admitted I was forced to use different IDs to be able to post.
But eventually, on the bloggers judgement call, I was allowed to post again. Has anybody here asked you to settle it? For me it is settled. You are usurping authority by sheer guts and nitwittedness. I was not name-calling when I said that matanda ka na. Based on your picture and you are. Excuse me if I no longer respond to your post that focuses on personality.
If you cannot do that the talking is over. You asked for the evidence of your idiocy, I gave it. So, what is your problem now? Telling the readers here how your mind works is name calling?
Care to show any evidence? The moderator has nothing to do in my exposing your idiocy. They can delete my comment if I violated any of their terms of service. And I have not. Another of your idiocy er I mean pompousness aka self-aggrandizement — the moderators does not talk about you means your violations are settled? From one of the moderators —. Are you resentful that others of your ilk have plum assignments and you are assigned to take us on?
Double barreled i d s. Sounds like you could use a hug. Just get it from Grace Lee or all the other Noynoy decoys. You were the one who started shooting your mouth or your fingers on Filipino unoriginality. Now, someone is calling you on it. But since you obviously are very much in the dark, I will start with a few examples. A good number of them are world-renowned too. In the area of arts, you could go to Ugu Bigyan or to Antique for pottery.
You can go to Paete for wood sculpting. Or you can also look at a list of all our painters. Hernandez, F. You want inventors for something more scientifically-related? In theater, you have indie films. You might also want to check out on Gantimpala Theater who has been around 35 years already.
Or you can go and watch some original plays by young writers of today. And there are probably a lot of areas I missed. Heck, we have even created religions here. And there are many more contemporary Filipinos who continue to create original works of their own who remain obscure to you because you remain so pitted in your narrow view of the dysfunctionality of the Filipinos.
Nice list. Would you say those people you cited are representative of the larger society or nation in much the same way that the Japanese and Chinese are regarded for their harmoniously cohesive industry and discipline, the Germans for their engineering and manufacturing prowess, the French and Italians for their aesthetic taste, and the British and Americans for their enterprise and commercial acumen?
Indeed, enlightened minds are those who do not only read books or articles that affirm or reinforce their original stand and brands as bias those that argues for the opposite. Reading, as in eating fruits, does not necessarily mean we eat the seeds together with the flesh. I think this anti-climatic discussion should be punctuated. What you said is that Filipinos are unoriginal people.
You go on to insinuate the Filipino people have never had an original creation in their entire cultural, national lives. I have given you much evidence to the contrary, you insist on finding further fault with it. That is your decision, not mine.
Even foreigners have better things to say about us than some of the [more] appalling things I have read here on this blog entry. Are these achievements representative of us as Filipinos?
They came from the Filipino culture, did they not? They are fruits of the experiences of our fellowmen. And as I have told you, this is just a small list. And many are still coming forth, many of which you probably have no idea about because your base premise is that nothing original comes from the Filipino.
Go out and educate yourself on this matter, at least. I will say this for the last time, Benigno. We also have our shortcomings, much as any race have in the world. We all have much to be proud of and much to be ashamed of, in the larger scheme of things. If you studied the annals of history, you would know that. The way I see it, you are stating that Filipinos are pretentious in reacting over this issue. So here I go. Villacorta: Smegma should be scrubbed away.
Go ahead, file a complaint. Besides, who can even prove these words are really mine? These stories made other people.

In September , Sotto was accused of lifting portions of a Kennedy speech in when he delivered the final part of his opposition to the RH bill in Filipino. The late senator's daughter, Kerry, demanded a public apology from Sotto.
And somebody changed it into English and somebody translated it into Tagalog unofficially. So, is that plagiarism? Versions of the Philippine national anthem exist in Spanish , in English , and Filipino Guidelines on how and when it should be sung are in Republic Act No. In August of the same year, netizens pointed out that the explanations presented during the first part of his turno en contra speech were copied almost exactly from an article of a blogger Sarah Pope.
He also allegedly plagiarized in his anti-RH bill speeches the online works of bloggers Janice Formichella and Peter Engelman. In an advisory opinion in , the Department of Justice said that plagiarism is punishable under the Cybercrime Prevention Act only if it corresponds to a copyright infringement under the Intellectual Property Code.
