Regulating content being offered in video streaming sites, he stressed, would ensure that these materials are compliant with the MTRCB law.
He said it is the mandate of the MTRCB to review content regardless of where it is being shown, adding that the internet is just a medium and it does not follow that the agency loses jurisdiction on shows being streamed into the country. “Because insofar as we are concerned, our working draft is ready. It’s a matter of implementation and there is just a hanging provision pertaining to legislation which we cannot resolve,” he added.But Senator Sherwin Gatchalian, author of the bill, said the measure does not cover the regulation of video content being offered to online consumers.
In response, Presquito said that in other countries, all Netflix content undergoes prior review, citing South Korea’s policy that requires the prior review of the contents from the American movie and technology giant.
