I really don't care what the law says is permissible and what is not, life would be so much easier if everybody adopted the Golden rule and simply did to others only what they want done to themselves.

Apparently not until my sister has been involve in a malicious accusation of someone through a blog. My sister owns an on-line multiply shop, I am also a part-time owner of the shop. It was going on smoothly, not until my sister had an issue with this other on-line seller. They had themselves "fight" over their blogs. Until a fake and offensive multiply account against the other party was made and unfortunately my sister was the one accused to create such. I am very much sure that my sister is not the one who made all these. That is why i kept researching how we will be able to go after these. The other party have made her blog directly accusing my sister who have made the account. How will i be able to stop these. I already consulted a friend lawyer, but he says there is no law here in the Philippines that covers blog writers, until i came up with this site. Please help me with this. Thank You. Atty Fred,

Thank you so much. I am currently working on a case of internet libel for a client and I stumbled upon this site. I am thinking along the same lines as Hardnock since the evidence I have so far do not clearly establish the authorship of the libelous material. A possible way to know the true identity of the blogger is to have his/ her email address and proceed with circumstantial evidence from there. If anyone is willing to share the other ways on how to ascertain the identity of a blogger, i would really appreciate it. All these exchange of ideas had been very informative. Thank you so much.

Then Person B will sue Person A for libel. If you are Person A, how can you defend yourself?

How can they prove the identity of the writer of the said blog? Especially if the bloggers are located elsewhere (outside the Philippines). Is the picture (for mulitply, facebook and FS) and name in the said blogspot sufficient enough to accuse someone of libel? How about the law on jurisdiction? What if the said blogspot was done in a country where there is no law on libel,and was read in a country such as the Philippines? How then will this progress?
