MTRCB plans to regulate NetFlix and other streaming platforms

The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) expressed its intention to regulate NetFlix and other streaming platforms to make sure that the materials being shown are compliant with MTRCB rules.

“There is a necessity for us to proceed with the regulation, especially during the lockdown. Most of us ang nag-maintain ng sanity po natin ‘yung mga streaming services eh. Netflix, Iflix, lahat ng mga movies na nakikita natin but all of those movies Mr. Chair, unrated po ‘yun,” MTRCB’s legal affairs division chief Atty. Jonathan Presquito told Senators.

“Streaming services, like Netflix, are video on demand platforms and we have to regulate those platforms. We have to ensure that those materials being shown on those platforms are compliant with the MTRCB law,” Presquito added.
