For sure, Laurio is neither the first nor the only one in recent days to have been abused online. Neither has she been the only one forced out of anonymity. Before the Senate hearing on fake news, where PAB was mentioned by Thinking Pinoy’s RJ Nieto, she was cloaked with anonymity and she unabashedly criticized the Duterte administration for its excesses and abuses. What motivated her to blog? Simply the desire to speak up about extrajudicial killings, weeping mothers left behind by murdered sons suspected of dealing with illegal drugs. Not in her wildest imagination did she expect to be attacked and shamed online.
