Akbayan Youth called for the military and police to explain their links with Facebook's takedown of accounts and pages for coordinated inauthentic behavior on Tuesday. "The military and police have a lot of explaining to do. At a time when China is gaining control over our territory, our power grids and soon our telecommunications system, why is our military distracting itself with fake Facebook accounts to attack youth and students?" Akbayan Youth chairperson Dr. RJ Naguit said. "The report cites that suspicious online activities heightened during the debates on the Anti-Terror Act in 2019. From the looks of it, it seems that our uniformed personnel are more concerned about spreading propaganda against critics rather than protecting the Filipino people," Naguit said. "The House and Senate needs to hold the military and police to account during the budget hearings for 2021. We need to know that not a single centavo of taxpayers' money is being used to endanger the lives of the youth," Naguit said. "We need to know the truth about this network-- why it's built and how it's funded-- to hold the government accountable. If it's part of preparations for Terror Act crackdowns, it's time for the Supreme Court to act and take the Terror Act down," Dr. Naguit said.
