Now you see? This is exactly what happens when you don’t do your research properly! You’re working in government, yet you’re failing to gather and verify the necessary data before making decisions.
Do your job properly before making decisions that affect the public.
So this happened. Not even 24 hours, and not only have the CICC and DICT walked back from going through with a nationwide Discord ban in the Philippines.
They're shown to be COMPLETELY oblivious to what they just did. Talk about a PR disaster.
I should quote one line from Hamilton: “Congratulations, you have invented a new kind of stupid. A damage you can never undo kinda stupid”
After realizing that this solution was so far-fetched and senseless, now you apologize? They think this damage can be undone? Hell no!
Congratulations to the PH governement, you think this is one of your greatest achievements in the year 2026?
This is your solution? What a joke. Instead of actually providing STRICTER laws for gun ownership and for students welfare, violence and safety, you did this.
Discord users in the Philippines may have trouble connecting to the app.
This started after the CICC warned Discord and Reddit that they could face restrictions unless they appointed local representatives.
Both companies responded. CICC then extended the deadline.
Discord has not been officially banned nationwide. However, many Globe and DITO users report connection errors. This points to a block at the internet-provider level, most likely DNS filtering, not a full government shutdown.
What users report works for now: switch to Google DNS (8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4) or Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1 / 1.0.0.1), then restart the app.
UPDATE: Senate President Win Gatchalian says the country is experiencing its slowest economic growth since 2017, excluding the pandemic years.
According to Gatchalian, the Philippines is now second to the last in terms of economic growth in the ASEAN. He points to self-inflicted damage or corruption, and the Iran conflict as reasons for the slowdown. | via @victoriatulad
LOOK: Philippine National Police Chief PGen. Rommel Francisco Marbil, together with Criminal Investigation and Detection Group Chief PMGen. Nicolas Torre III, leads the reactivation of the National Election Monitoring Action Center (NEMAC) on Wednesday, May 7, at the PNP Command Center.
The NEMAC will serve as the eyes and ears of the PNP to ensure a quick response to any disturbances during the 2025 National and Local Elections on May 12.

Is this what the older Filipinoes like to say when they shifting the blame and not holding accountability to negligence, another backward mindset.

A big yikes, listen, if people wanna communicate, theywill always find a way, banning these apps wont solve anything, these doesnt change anything. Focus on the root problem, WHY THE FUCK did that kid have a gun in the first place? Did he fcking purchase it on discord? !
Just so you know Philippine Government if you do shutdown Discord, Reddit, Meta, without studying it's after effects the whole
"DIGITAL ECONOMY" on the Philippines will CRASH.
There are lot of freelancers, Virtual Assistants, etc. Who has jobs inside these platforms.
