🔒 Closed Crypto group wants to revive Blockbuster as a streaming service

Back in the days before streaming, Blockbuster, which originally opened in 1985, became the premier provider of home movie and video game rental services around the world.

🔒 Closed Goodbye, trolls?' Senate approves bill requiring SIM card registration

In efforts to prevent scams, fake news, and other fraudulent mobile activity, the Senate has approved on its third and final reading a bill that will require subscribers to register and present a valid ID before purchasing a SIM card.

One P1,000 bill does not a hero make.

The BSP recently launched a preview of the newly designed ₱1,000 bill, which will feature a Philippine eagle instead of the previous composite photo of three of...
