![]() “ Kinakabahan po ako sa araw-araw, lalo na at kumakalat pa rin talaga iyong video ko,” he said. What happened back then floats like a gray cloud over his head. They already tried reporting to the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI). But still, the perpetrator finds other ways to continue the illicit “business” of selling Gary’s video to an undetermined number of people.Īlmost two years since the incident, living a normal life is still a struggle for Gary. ![]() Gary has friends who tried reporting the accounts that sell his video to Twitter. He still goes online but is wary of venturing into other social media platforms, afraid he might see his video. Since then, Gary said he’s been a nervous wreck, stressed over the impact of the video. He doesn’t even want to think about how widespread his video has become. He said he has no idea how many people – many of whom he has never met – have viewed the video. His brothers found out about the video, followed by some of his cousins. Gary’s circle slowly discovered what happened. It didn’t take long before Gary found out that a video of him masturbating was already being sold and traded on Twitter. He blocked the account, thinking that would be the last of it. “ Nag-chat siya, sabi niya kilala niya ako at meron siyang ikakalat na baho ko (He messaged me saying he knows who I am and that he has dirt on me that he would spread),” Gary recalled. But the dummy account replied in a threatening manner, confirming his worst fears. He wouldn’t fall for this again, Gary assured himself. A year after, another dummy account tried to trick him into doing the same thing. Gary expectedly got worried, but months passed without any incident so he tried brushing his worries aside. The video call did not last long, but enough time for Gary to show his penis and to masturbate. The identity the account tried to emulate was another person, a foreign celebrity, who doesn’t even know that Gary existed. The woman turned out to be a dummy account that targeted people on the internet. That’s when he realized he was duped and quickly ended the call. It took a few seconds during the video call before he realized that the person on the other line looked and felt too mechanical, that she stopped talking and moving at long intervals. It was not long before the woman asked to talk to him via a video call. They talked for a while about the most random things and about Gary’s life. When they first became Facebook friends, Gary said he diligently stalked her, combed through photos and videos, and even went through her network. She was beautiful, had fair skin, with looks similar to leading ladies featured in popular Korean television shows. But unlike his peers, Gary struggles to fully embrace his future, afraid that a specific incident in his recent past will explode for all the world to see and abruptly end his dreams. ![]() He should be enjoying his youth while preparing for the years ahead.
