In recent times, the new President of the Philippines has come under attack for his poor handling of the hostage crisis. There is also suggestions of corruption, like the setting up of very generous discretionary funds. The Filipino people are among the most prolific social networkers, so it is understandable that these issues would raise some controversy online. It is also little wonder that such opposition would not go unchallenged by Aquino, or his supporters.
Consider one Facebook group 'Step Down Aquino'. The developers of this website tell me that Aquino and/or his supporters have been able to infiltrate their Facebook account and engage in all manner of identity fraud, including:
1. Posting of pornography
2. Deleting 50% of the content
3. Thinly veiled threats to delete by showing their ability to corrupt
4. Setting up similar Facebook accounts under the identity of the person, but placing 'jibbish' content to discredit any opposition to their cause.
