  3. Paid subscription ang netflix na hindi katulad ng free tv na kaya panoorin ng mga bata. Alam ko pwede lagyan ng password ang netflix kung ayaw ng parents gamitin pag wala sila. Walang point na pati netflix gusto i-regulate. Nasa nagbabayad na yun kung pano nila i-handle ang account nila. Bibigyan ba ng MTRCB ng discount ang subscribers dahil ang daming mawawalang content.

    Hay naku lalo na tag covid madaming lalabas na lang sa bahay. Tapos aakusahan na matitigas ang mga ulo pero lahat ng pwede panoorin sa bahay unti unti nawawala. Libangan yan sa mga Pinoy ngayon pandemya wag niyo galawin.

    1. Meron din naman yung For Kids option sa Netflix para di mapanuod ng mga bata yung di appropriate for them to watch. Paid subscription nga kaya dapat wala silang say about this. Kaloka

  4. Lol. Prolly trying to hit two birds with one stone cause they're indicating na Netflix + other streaming services, meaning kasali din yung online platform ng abs cbn, etc. and they'll be able to continue making money off of abs plus yung additional pa sa netflix at kung ano pa mang streaming service ang nageexist. On top of that, they can censor yung content na nakikita ng mga tao especially yung galing sa mga progressive na bansa...and more importantly, potential na content na gawa dun sa mga progressive countries na yun about the sh*tshow happening in the ph, na malamang hindi lang nangyayari ngayon dahil busy ang bawat bansa sa pandemic. Netflix did make that documentary happy jail

  5. mtrcb prob lost a lot of income when abs went off air. they need to compensate for that so lahat nalang pinapakialaman. leave netflix alone. it has parental control features for kids to limit the content.

  7. Lol, it’s non of your business what we subscribe to on the net. We don’t need a nanny. It’s our money and our decision, so bug off.

  8. Don’t tell us what to do. If you don’t like Netflix or any other streaming services then don’t subscribe. It’s not free. You can’t access them if you don’t subscribe.

  9. Lol, they are always thinking of ways to waste our tax money.

  11. Ugh MTRCB. Do not touch paid subscriptions and streaming services. We are paying for it and aware of the ways on how to restrict its contents for our kids. If we have a prob then we will get in touch with the provider. If they keep on doing this, they will scare other providers. And where will that leave us? Such a waste of time unless they have ulterior motives.

  12. Ang pinakanakakatawa, people had no qualms about discarding abs cbn since their content was "outdated" and they now have Netflix as a source of entertainment. I don't consume abs cbn content, but this is just too damn funny given na ilang months palang ang nakakalipas lololol. Pero in fairness, hindi to maggogo-through cause filipinos will fight tooth and nail to stop this...our priorities are never straight afterall lololol. You can take away jobs and literally work medical professionals to death but take away the unlimited supply of kdramas and la casa del papel and filipinos will give you war.

  14. lol. it's a streaming service and should not be under mtrcb. jusme e kung sa Middle East nag walling censorship sa Netflix jan pa ?

  15. Tingin ko related to sa pag move ng ABS to digital. Gusto nila regulate din kasi gusto nila ma control ang content ng ABS kasi Baka maka apekto sa government. Ginamit Lang nila ang Netflix para hindi obvious

  16. Netflix is not a free tv. It's a paid subscription. You want to regulate something I paid for? Are you high?

  17. Craziness to the max by MTRCB. Kahit porn ang panoorin ko i need to be a subscriber, meaning I have to pay for it. Hindi naman ito free tv. Gamitin na lang nila sa mas makabuluhan ang oras nila.

  18. Other video-on demand platforms like Gagaoolala? How can that be regulated, everything there is censored! SMH

    ReplyDelete
  19. Might as well regulate all streaming platforms! Buti pa nga Netflix, nakahiwalay yung hindi child appropriate shows and movies. Ang i-regulate nila yung mga vloggers, "influencers" na mas accessible ng GP

    1. Naku huwag kasi baka pag binigyan sila ng ganyang power, censorship under the governments bias. Tinatakot nga nila na buwagin ang NTC gagawin din nila sa MTRCB given the chance para sumunod sa kanila
