Netizens fall for satirical ‘Anti-Angry Birds Bill’ - Technology - GMA News Online - Latest Philippine News

Netizens fall for satirical ‘Anti-Angry Birds Bill’ - Technology - GMA News Online - Latest Philippine News: "Filipino netizens are fuming over a supposed bill that seeks to ban the online game “Angry Birds," making the said bill the Philippines’ third most discussed topic on Twitter this Sunday.

News on the so-called “Anti-Angry Birds Bill" is going viral on social networking sites after the satirical website “So, What’s News?" posted a story on this last Friday. The bill was supposedly filed by Quezon City Rep. Winston Castelo, who earlier filed a bill against planking during street protests.

The satire said Castelo got the idea for the bill when he went Christmas shopping the other day at a mall. “Everywhere I looked, ‘Angry Birds’ this, ‘Angry Birds’ that! Where is the product diversity? Shouldn’t the DTI be monitoring this?" the representative supposedly said.
