Visit our course site on Schoology. Go to the EDTECL230 Discussion Folder, then study the case below and analyze the
side of both parties.
The case involved two minor students from a certain school whose photos were posted on Facebook. The photos,
which were uploaded by one of their friends, showed the students drinking and smoking in a bar, and wearing just
undergarments on a street. The photos were shown by one of the Facebook friends of the girls to the school officials
prompting them to ban the students from marching in their graduation rites. According to the school, the students
violated the school code of conduct.
The parents of the students in defense filed a petition for the issuance of a writ of habeas data and asked the court
to order the school to surrender and deposit all soft and printed copies of the photographs, and to declare they have
been illegally obtained in violation of the children's right to privacy.
Discussion:
1. After weighing all the information, with whom will you side - to the parent or to the school?
2. What are your reasons for siding with the parents? the school?
Supreme Court’s decision

The court dismissed the parent's petition and ruled that, "The school did not violate the minors' privacy rights.
According to the court, the school cannot be faulted for being "steadfast in its duty of teaching its students to be
responsible in their dealings and activities in cyberspace, particularly in social networks), when it enforced the
disciplinary actions specified in the Student Handbook, absent a showing that, in the process, it violated the students'
rights.”
The decision of the court stated that the students cannot invoke the protection attached to the right to informational
privacy because the photos were seen by other student of the school, who in turn showed them to the computer
teacher who reported the incident to the school authorities. In the language of the court. "The photos, having been
uploaded on Facebook without restrictions as to who may view them, lost their privacy in some way." The court further
added in its ruling that setting their post privacy to 'Friends Only’ is not an assurance that it can no longer be viewed
by another user who is not Facebook friends with the source of the content. The decision read that, “Without proof
that they placed the photographs subject of this case within the ambit of their protected zone of privacy, they cannot
now insist that they have an expectation of privacy with respect to the photographs in question.
The decision of the court puts the burden of ensuring safeguarding privacy online users and expects them to
exercise due diligence in their online dealings and activities. According to the court, not discounting the role of schools
and parents in disciplining and educating their children to be good digital citizens, self-regulation is the best means of
avoiding privacy rights violations. It further issued a ruling saying that nothing is ever private on Facebook, even those
tagged as private never really escape public viewing, including unintended audiences.
The Philippines, being considered as social media capital of the world, has a need to stress social media education and
etiquette among online users. The interview conducted with parents and teachers of high school students in the above
example underscored the need to use social media responsibly. All agreed for the inclusion of social media etiquette in the

many things in terms of social good (Brutas, 2015).

ACQUIRE
In the previous lesson, we have understood our roles and responsibilities as global digital citizens. Our membership
in the virtual community requires that we behave appropriately and act responsibly.
While working online we all create a digital tattoo and we leave digital footprints. We have to remember that our digital
world is permanent, and with each post, we leave a digital footprint By doing self-reflecting before we self-reveal
we are able to consider how what we share online can impact ourselves and others (www.commonsensemedia.org).
Scrutinizing the term again, a netizen, according to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary (26 April 2018) is an active
participant in the online community of the internet. The medical dictionary refers to it as an internet citizen who uses
networked resources, which connotes civic responsibility and participation. Thus netizenship means citizenship in the
internet or in the virtual world.
As responsible netizens, we are all expected to support a healthy interaction on the internet. A netiquette, or the rules
of socially accepted behavior online have to be observed in writing an email, in texting, and other communications on the
web.
Below are some netiquette guidelines:

1. Protect your reputation.
Whether in real or in virtual world, you are the same person. Do only what is appropriate and share information that
does not harm you as a person
2. Respect others.
Respect begets respect. Treat everyone with respect even if you have not seen him/her in person. Be judicious
about what you say on your own and other's pages.
3. Express yourself clearly and use emoticons.
Communication online is difficult because emotions are not evident during communication. Miscommunication
usually takes place because your facial expression and your body language cannot be seen and the tone of your voice
cannot be heard. Thus, emoticons are readily available to show your emotions
4. Remember the intellectual property.
Ideas online are products of intelligence of others If you need to cite them, acknowledge the authors. You definitely
do not want to steal properties of others.
5. Check spelling, grammar and punctuation.
Since your face cannot be seen online, you will be judged according to your posts Good writing means good
manners. We do not want to waste other people's time reading our post which is comprehensible.
6. Pause before you post.
Take note that whatever you post becomes permanent therefore think twice or thrice before you click send.
7. Do not share your personal information.
Sharing your personal information online is like going around the streets wearing a shirt printed with your name,
birthday, address, name of parents, etc. You definitely do not want to reveal all these to many people. Besides,
providing all these publicly will make you prone to identity theft.
8. Think about who or what you are representing.
As a son/daughter, you represent your family. As a student, you represent your school. You do not want your family
or school to be put to shame by what you do
Each of us has a significant contribution to the kind of community we have in the virtual world. As the Association of
American Medical Colleges (2015 in www.cyberbullying.org) says it, “We are responsible for the public face that the
connected world sees”. Consequently, our individual digital reputation is shaped by our posts on social media.
