The 1986 EDSA Revolution was a pivotal moment in Philippine history, where Filipinos united to oppose the tyranny under the dictatorship of former President Ferdinand Marcos Sr.. However, the country still faces long-term instabilities in its aftermath. Thus, by accounting for the facets contributing to the discourse of the general will, the paper examines EDSA through Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s theory to ascertain whether political rallies are compatible under a social contract—an agreement concerning individuals’ rights and responsibilities to stimulate respectful coexistence and law adherence. This paper argues that political rallies are compatible if they uphold the general will and when the …

Student Journal of Information Privacy Law

The debate surrounding interoperability involves commercial interests, privacy interests, and security interests. Application Programming Interfaces or APIs are a vital component of interoperability, and the possibility of regulating APIs creates tension between owners of APIs, consumers, and other parties. There are many current and proposed methods for regulation. Some are technological, some are legal. No single method completely regulates APIs, and many lack the authority that comes from established precedent. Technology regulation has previously turned to property law principles for privacy and other vital interests. By turning easement law into a framework for API governance, there is a robust tool …
