Mga fresh updates tungkol sa internet at digital landscape sa Pilipinas this week:

• Naka-birthday tayo — 32 years na pala since nakonekta ang Pilipinas sa internet! May throwback article ang Inquirer kung paano nangyari yun. Nostalgic lol
• Shutting down na ang Messenger website (messenger.com) by April 2026. So browser access wala na, app na lang. Hindi pa naman urgent pero good to know
• BSP gusto gamitin ang satellite internet para mapalawak ang digital payments lalo na sa far-flung areas. Maganda to kung matuloy — imagine kahit sa probinsya pwede na mag-online payments
• May bagong Freedom on the Net report para sa Pilipinas from Freedom House. Worth checking kung gaano tayo kalaya online vs previous years
• World Bank nag-release din ng report about increasing internet connectivity para sa digital transformation natin. Translation: kailangan pa rin talaga natin ng better internet infrastructure haha
• Online education market sa PH projected to grow big by 2026 — more AI integration, flexible learning options. Useful info kung may kilala kang nag-o-online school
• May study from Johns Hopkins about e-marketing's role sa rising vape epidemic dito. Interesting angle on how internet ads affect public health
• Global network outage report for 2025 is out — pwede ring reference kung gaano often nag-do-down ang connections worldwide

Ano sa inyo ang most interesting? Yung satellite internet ng BSP parang promising ah. O yung 32-year internet anniversary — may maalala pa ba kayo nung dial-up days? haha
