ACT 114A is an amendment to the Evidence Act 1950 and it's trying to make Internet user to take up the responsibility of any content being shared on the world wide web from their electronic devices, mainly computers, tablets and smart phones or even Internet connection regardless of the poster. In short, as long as you are the host, you'll be pleaded guilty unless you can prove your innocence.
How would it affect me? As an active Internet user, I ought to feel affected but I believe as long as I take good care of my behavior and avoid touching on sensitive issues on the Internet, I suppose it wouldn't affect me for the time being.
Frankly speaking, it does matter to me because I run a blog and a forum and with this, I'm more aware now about the security and posting permissions on my social networks.
I'm very much concerned about this issue as it would affect not only me but other Internet users as well. We might not see how it's affecting us right now but in the future, we may as this new law has just sparked up the idea to tech savvy and pro hackers in doing their tricks without getting caught easily.

Yes, maybe if we take good care of our behavior and avoid touching on the sensitive issues on internet, then we would not be affected by this. So, we must always be careful of what we said and wisely use internet services.
ReplyDeleteAgree with your points.As an active internet users, we should caution what we write and what we post on the internet. Avoid touching from the sensitive issue.
ReplyDeleteya...if we really take a good care of our behavior and avoid touching on sensitive issues on the Internet, we suppose wouldn't affect for the time being.
ReplyDeleteBut then,if really got hacker or people try to post some harmful content,you also not able to do anything rite?
Agree. Therefore, we need to be more aware in voicing out in the internet. Now in the first place, why would we gain hackers? Obviously, they are people who are discontented with what we've said, or did on the internet and they were just trying to make an awful "revenge" by hacking our accounts.
