You all need to understand that there is a well-funded movement to kill Wikipedia as an institution. The dream of an internet that provided universal access to knowledge was a mirage. It threatened too many powerful people, so now we have AI summaries and illiteracy.
Can we also talk about how Wikipedia entries are no longer at the top of a search 😭

‘HEALTHCARE SHOULD NOT DEPEND ON WHOM A PATIENT KNOWS’ UPDATE: The Health Professionals Alliance After COVID-19 group urged Congress to abolish the Medical Assistance to Indigent and Financially Incapacitated Patients (MAIF) program, whose proposed 2027 budget was nearly doubled from ₱24 billion to ₱50 billion. The group warned that patients often have to seek politicians' help to access medical assistance, making the program vulnerable to political patronage. Instead, it proposed transferring the funds to PhilHealth so patients can receive assistance based on medical needs rather than political connections. | via Hannah Ty, bnc.ph

Flash news para kay Ronald Puno na tinawag kaming ignorante: A number of us actually worked in gov’t budgeting and fiscal management in the past. Best of all, we have brilliant volunteer software developers, data analysts, researchers - all 5,500 of them. WE HAVE RECEIPTS

WALANG HUMPAY NA PANININDAK. GALAWANG DUWAG. Over a secret case filed by an unknown complainant, veteran journalist Philip Lustre Jr. is arrested and in jail. What is clear so far is that the case was filed in Davao City. Sa Davao City na naman. Ang nakababahala pa, inaresto siya kung kailan Sabado, sa isang media forum, sa harap ng maraming mamamahayag, isang araw matapos sampahan ng kasong libel at cyber libel ang GMA Network at iba pang mga journalists. Tulad ng ibinigay na script sa mga trolls, malinaw ang mensahe: Iniisa-isa na kayo, isusunod na kayo, kaya mabuti pang manahimik na kayo. Pero tulad ng sinabi ni Philip Lustre na “Ilalaban ko ito. Hindi ko uurungan ito,” yan din ang nagkakaisang boses ng mga mamamahayag at mga naghahangad ng katotohanan at pananagutan: Ilalaban natin ito, hindi tayo uurong sa laban – hindi tulad ng mga nasa likod ng panggigipit at panunupil sa malayang pamamahayag. 📸 PNA, One News

Senator Ronald dela Rosa is my Senate colleague, a former subordinate in the PNP, and a fellow PMA Cavalier. I sincerely hope and pray that should his arrest take place sooner or later, it will be carried out peacefully, without violence or tragedy. He has his faults, as we all do. But whatever accusations he faces, he is entitled to due process, a fundamental right guaranteed to every Filipino, and for that matter, to every human being.

Impeachment trial is on break. Cong Pulong Duterte recently filed a libel complaint against GMA executives. Then today, a veteran journalist was arrested for a surprise cyberlibel complaint from Davao city. A coincidence or a counteroffensive? You can smell the playbook from a mile away.
Authorities arrest journalist Philip Lustre in a restaurant in Quezon City over a cyberlibel complaint. The arrest warrant was issued by a Davao City court. Lustre said he is not aware of any complaints against him. | via @daniza_frnndz

‘SEND THIS POOR VERSION OF A FOREIGN GUEST, THIS HOOLIGAN BACK HOME’ Sen. Kiko Pangilinan has urged President Bongbong Marcos to send Chinese Ambassador Jing Quan back to China following the envoy’s latest warning against testing Beijing’s patience. In a Facebook post, Pangilinan called Jing “arrogant, insulting, crude and insolent.”
