The website of the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) was defaced by hackers claiming to be
members of Anonymous Philippines Sunday afternoon, saying that they are in solidarity with Filipinos who
are suffering from slow internet speed in the country.

pyramid having one of the lowest internet speeds while

paying the same amount, or even higher, compared to
other countries; adding DATA CAPPING to our
UNLIMITED data plans sums up to our great burden as
an avid follower of the internet for studies and such,
the message read.
The hackers demanded NTC to impose rules on fair charging and servicing of data services in the country.
Unlimited should be patterned to its name UNLIMITED'; not UNLIMITED with 800MB cap. A 2 MBPS
speed should never be a 56kbps (kilobytes per second). A 98 percent service reliability should be always on
the 98% part, not the 2 percent one, the message further read.

The hacking on the NTC website came after the government agency conducted a pilot test on fixed
broadband connection of four Internet service providers.
The test showed that Bayantel has the slowest Internet connection clocked at 563 kbps, paling in
comparison Globe Telecoms 2,785 kbps, Philippine Long Distance Telephone Companys 3,367 kbps and
Sky Cable Corps 2,818 kbps.
