Here is why your curiosity regarding the 'Viral Gold Medalist' Zyan Cabrera/Jerriel Cry4zee Video could land you in legal trouble:
The Viral Behaviour: "Proud to be a Manyak?"
In his statement, Atty. Del Rosario expressed disgust at how normalised the distribution of private videos has become. He noted that many users openly comment, asking for links, behaving as if accessing someone's private moments is an achievement rather than a violation of dignity.
"Parang ipinagmamalaki pa ang pagiging manyak. That behavior is not only disgusting, it is illegal," Atty. Del Rosario wrote.
The Law: Republic Act No. 9995
Many netizens mistakenly believe that as long as they aren't the ones who recorded the video, they are safe from prosecution. This is false.
Atty. Del Rosario clarifies that RA 9995 punishes the entire chain of distribution. The law expressly prohibits:
- Copying
- Reproducing
- Sharing
- Selling
- Privately Sending (PMs/DMs)
The "Consent" Myth:
A common defence netizens use is, "She let him record it, so it's okay." Atty. Del Rosario debunks this immediately.
"The prohibition applies even if consent to record the video was given... Once it is shared without consent, krimen na iyon." Means, even if a couple agrees to record a private moment, sharing that video with anyone else without express permission is a violation of the law.
No Excuses: "Curious Lang" is Not a Defence
If caught, common excuses will not hold up in court. Atty. Del Rosario lists the specific defences that do not work:
- "Curious lang ako" (I was just curious)
- "Nakita ko lang" (I just saw it)
- "One time lang" (I only did it once)
He emphasises: "Asking for the video, saving it, or forwarding it makes you part of the violation."
What Will Happen if You Share or Receive 'Viral Gold Medalist' Zyan Cabrera/Jerriel Cry4zee Video:
To illustrate the severity, Atty. Del Rosario presented a chilling example of how the law counts violations:
"In the case of the person who allegedly shared the video 6,987 times, that is also 6,987 counts under RA 9995."
Each act of sharing is a separate count of the crime, potentially leading to compounded penalties.
A Call for Digital Dignity
Beyond the threat of jail time, this is a matter of basic human decency. Being a "public figure" or an influencer like Jerriel Cry4zee does not strip a person of their human rights. Gold Medalist Viral Video Scandal: Why Clicking This Zyan Cabrera Link Is Dangerous.
As Atty. Del Rosario concludes: "Stop turning someone's private moment into public consumption. The law is clear, and so should our moral compass be."
Safety Reminder:
The "Pinay Gold Medalist" video links currently circulating are often scams leading to malware and phishing sites. But even if a real video existed, sharing it is a crime. Stop the spread. Report the links. Don't be an accessory to the crime.
