The local internet community is in shock as one of the most satirical and archival pages, Philippine Television Out of Context, has officially been taken down by Meta.
In a heartfelt statement released by "Admin 1," the page creator shared the devastating news that their legacy platform—which recently hit a massive 100,000 follower milestone—was deactivated following a wave of automated copyright strikes.
The Cause: Automated AI Moderation
According to the official statement, the takedown was triggered by Meta’s AI moderation system. The system flagged the page for multiple copyright violations, specifically citing content owned by ABS-CBN.
Admin 1 clarified that this was not the result of a coordinated "mass-reporting" campaign by rival fanbases (often referred to as fantards), but rather a swift, automated sweep by Facebook’s internal algorithms.
> "I have received 15 emails from Facebook detailing all of the uploads that were striked down," Admin 1 stated, noting that the strikes happened "all of a sudden and at such notice."
What Happens Next?
While the original page is currently offline, the team behind the "Out of Context" brand isn't giving up. Here is the current status of their digital presence:
* Appeals Process: The admins are currently in the process of appealing the strikes with Facebook to try and recover the legacy page.
* Discord Community: The official Discord server remains active and unaffected.
* Alternative Platforms: Fans are encouraged to follow their existing accounts on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram.
* The New Home: A backup page, Philippine Television Out of Context 2.0, has already been established to keep the community together.
The statement concluded with a message of gratitude to the followers, known affectionately as "mga ka-out of context," for their unwavering support since the page's "zero days."
