Remember Rep. Joseph Santiago blaming broadband for the proliferation of porn in the country? Well, he back again lashing at 3G networks.

A lawmaker has raised the red flag over the future proliferation of pornography over faster mobile networks like the 3G (third-generation) networks.

pagpasenyahan nyo na. the congressman is just looking for some love from the cellco’s. alam nyo naman, holiday season… :)
