Mga fresh na updates tungkol sa internet scene natin! Here's what's been happening:
May nakita ba dito na interesting sa inyo? especially yung Messenger web shutdown and BSP satellite internet push — thoughts?
- Messenger's website version ay magshi-shut down na by April 2026 — so if gamer ka na nagchachat sa browser, maghanda na lumipat sa app or Messenger Desktop. Malamang pinapalayas na talaga tayo sa web version lol.
- Freedom House released their 2025 Freedom on the Net report for the Philippines — worth checking out kung concerned ka about online censorship and digital rights dito sa atin.
- BSP (Bangko Sentral) is exploring satellite internet to help boost digital payments, especially sa areas na mahirap abutin ng traditional connectivity. Good move for financial inclusion.
- Johns Hopkins study naman sinuri kung paano nagiging tool ang e-marketing sa paglaganap ng vaping sa Pilipinas — mostly online platforms ang nagda-drive ng surge. Relevant sa parents and regulators dito.
- Nostalgia trip: Inquirer looked back at how the Philippines first got connected to the internet 32 years ago. Ang layo na talaga natin noon hahaha.
- World Bank report says increasing internet connectivity is key to unlocking the country's digital transformation. (Though honestly, sino ba dito ang hindi pa convinced na kailangan better internet? Haha.)
- May 2025 global network outage report na rin — mostly infrastructure-related downtime patterns worldwide. If you're into that kind of data, interesting basahin.
