Abstract/Summary

This thesis was written in order to answer the conflicting schools of thought related to the Anti-Wiretapping Law and the exercise of civic duty. This is due to the fact that one who is exercising civic duty may possibly be violating the Anti-Wiretapping Law and thus, the constitutional right to privacy. That is why we must weigh each of the schools of thought and analyze its factors and elements to determine which will prevail.;"We arrived at our results through using the qualitative research method. This was done by gathering primary resources such as the different Philippine laws and jurisprudence while for the secondary resources we used different law journals, newspapers and the like. After we have gathered the resources, we defined criteria concepts by analyzing the resources, especially the jurisprudence, in order to piece together the answer to our research questions.

After utilizing the aforementioned research method, we have arrived at the conclusion that the right to privacy of public officials in the exercise of their official duties are waived and thus the Anti-Wiretapping Law is not applicable to them.
