Former Senator Kiko Pangilinan’s decision to file a cyber libel case against YouTuber “Bungangera TV” and Google has left many scratching their heads and stifling laughter. It seems Pangilinan is aiming for a jackpot of compensatory damages, akin to trying to strike gold in a fool’s mine. 

Comparing it to suing the U.S. government for the actions of one American citizen adds a delightful touch of absurdity to the situation. Perhaps Pangilinan envisions himself as a modern-day Don Quixote, tilting at windmills of internet trolls and search engines. 

While cyber libel is no laughing matter, the spectacle of a seasoned politician taking on digital giants in court borders on the comical. One can’t help but wonder if Pangilinan’s legal strategy involves throwing spaghetti at the wall and hoping something sticks. 

In the meantime, the rest of us can sit back and enjoy the show, complete with popcorn and a healthy dose of skepticism.
