The content creator who published a ‘copypaste’ featuring Mon Confiado was now pleading to the actor to withdraw the charges against him.
It can be recalled that content creator Jeff Jacinto, a.k.a Ileiad, was facing charges after Mon successfully traced him.
“Nawa’y maging aral sa iyo ito at sa ating lahat. Na ang paggamit ng pangalan at larawan ng walang pahintulot ay krimen. Na hindi lahat ng jokes ay nakakatawa at hindi lahat ng jokes ay para sa lahat. Dapat sana ang joke ay nakakapagpasaya at hindi nakakasira ng tao,” said Mon.
In an interview with Rappler, Jacinto insisted that the said copypasta was only a joke.
Jacinto also said that he only wanted to “apply 4chan humor to Filipino pop culture,”
The usual subject of the said copypasta were actors with good reputations, and it intended to “prank” the netizens that the said celebrity was rude all along.
Jacinto admitted that he was regretful that he underestimated Mon’s warning.
“I wish I could have just taken it down the moment I saw him in the comments,” said Jacinto.
As of writing, there were no signs for Mon to withdraw the charges he filed against Jacinto.
