STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Selfies are usually done in the name of good fun. But sadly, they
do not always end up well. A few selfie-related incidents have been
recorded and proved that a simple selfie-taking activity can be fatal. In
Philippines, a 15-year old boy borrowed the gun of his uncle to take a
selfie. With a camera in one hand and a gun on the other, the boy
accidentally pulled the trigger instead of clicking the camera button.
There was also a schoolgirl who suffered a fatal fall down stairs while
taking a selfie.

Chapter IV
Result
Results are based on the answered survey forms by 100 STI
College Bacoor students. The survey forms are composed of 8 questions
that will be further explained in this chapter.
I.
Respondents
Graph of Age Brackets
II.
Graph of Gender
The respondents were asked fill in a survey form with their age and
gender. As shown in table 1.1, 43% of our respondents are minors. 37%
claims to in the bracket 0f 18-20 while the remaining 20% ranges from
21 and above.
In table 1.2 shows that 53% of our respondents were male. The
remaining 47% are female. This proves that both male and female
respondents are both part of the so called Selfie Society.
III.
Based on the table above, most of the STI College Bacoor students
are aware that the Anti-Selfie Bill exists. Still, 20% of them claim to not
know about the said bill. Some of them even asked why the bill was
created. Those who are aware were unhappy with the governments
actions. Some stated that forming the HB No.4807 was a waste of time.
IV.
V.
We asked the respondents how often they take selfies and based on
their answers 31% takes one selfie a month. The following 27% takes a
selfie once a week. 22% of them take one daily, while the remaining 19%
takes more than one selfie a day.
VI.
The data above proves that most of the students use Facebook as
their photo sharing site. 75% claims Facebook to be their widely used
site, the following 13% post their selfies in Instagram and 10% shares
their pictures through Twitter. No one seems to use Flickr and Tumblr.
The remaining 3% uses social media sites such as Viber and Google.

and most of them said it was a waste of time. A big portion of the
respondents disagreed because it will violate their freedom of expression.
Chapter V
Conclusion
Based on the given data above, we therefore conclude that most of
the students are aware of the Anti-Selfie Bill. We explained the said bill to
those respondents who doesnt have a clue and they proceeded to the
next question in the survey. Only 15% were in favor of passing the AntiSelfie Bill and the remaining 85% are against it.
Most of the students take selfies as a daily routine and they post
the photos in their social media accounts. Facebook was chosen to be the
social media site that the students often use to share their photos. It was
followed by Instagram and Twitter. The larger portion 39% of the
respondents claims to post their selfies once a month. The following 34%
said that they share their photos once weekly.
Even though a lot of them disagree with the bill, 46% of the
respondents said that it wont affect their daily lives. 43% doesnt care,
and the remaining 11% said it will greatly affect their lives.
71% said that the bill should not be a law and 29% said it should
be formed. Based on their opinion, such bill was useless and the
government should focus on the bigger problems our country is facing.
These innocent photos wont change corruption and it will solve the
continuous growth of crime rate.
Recommendation
We
recommend
that
this
bill
should
not
be
furthermore
entertained. The said bill will only add additional concerns to the social
media site users. Most of the feedback from the respondents aims to stop
this bill because they think that there are more important matters to
discuss than this Anti-Selfie Bill. They should be focusing on a more
serious crime than making a law about self-taken photos. Some of the
respondents even called this bill useless, nonsense and stupid. In their
opinion, these selfies wont affect our economy or the government.
