UNAIR NEWS<\/strong> \u2013 President Jokowi signs Law Number 1 of 2024 on the Second Amendment to Law Number 11 of 2008 on Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE), January 2, 2024. The DPR RI previously approved the law on December 5, 2023.<\/p>\n\n

No elastic ITE articles<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

Professor Dr Henri Subiakto, Drs., SH., MSi, a Communication Expert from 51动漫, revealed that the second revision of the ITE Law involves changes to 14 articles and the addition of 5 new articles. He emphasized that no single clause in the ITE Law restricts freedom of expression, assuring that the public\u2019s ideas are not constrained.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cFrequently, misunderstandings occur due to incorrect interpretations by law enforcement officials, not the result of the ITE Law. These misunderstandings occur when they refer to the ITE Law rather than a thorough review of the relevant sections in the Criminal Code (KUHP) or the Joint Decree of the Three Ministers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n

The Communication Science lecturer noted the second iteration includes a more detailed and clear definition of norms. As a result, the ITE Law must now refer to other legislation as actual norms, reducing the potential for misinterpretation.<\/p>\n\n

Needs reconsideration<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

However, Prof. Henri pointed out that several articles in the law need to be reconsidered. For example, Article 27, paragraph 1 includes the added phrase \u2018for public knowledge\u2019. He believed that it represented an infiltration of liberal values.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cIt relates\u00a0to moral offenses,\u00a0such as pornography. The latest amendment\u00a0makes it more difficult to prosecute pornographic distribution under the ITE Law because it now only applies if the dissemination is \u2018for public knowledge\u2019. This may seem like a minor change, but it is highly significant. Pornography is often spread\u00a0privately instead of publicly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n

He named another problematic article, Article 27A of the ITE Law\u2019s second revision, an amendment from Article 27 paragraph (3) of the ITE Law. There is a change originally referenced to the Criminal Code (KUHP) regarding defamation or blasphemy, notably Articles 310 and 311 concerning \u2018someone\u2019. In the updated article, however, it is stated as \u2018other person\u2019.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cIn the previous article, situations involving the insult or defamation of a specific individual with a clear identity were subject to prosecution. An absolute complaint offense could only be filed by the person whose identity was mentioned. However, the new article becomes more general due to the use of the term \u2018other person\u2019, which is broader. This raises the question: does every individual now have the right to file complaints and report related cases?\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n

The professor also mentioned Article 28, paragraph 2, which prohibits the spread of hate speech based on ethnicity, race, or religion (SARA). Specific groups, such as political parties or similar organizations, are not referenced in the revised article. However, it is frequently the categorizing into such groupings that leads to conflict. This omission in the law raises questions about its efficiency in resolving conflicts emerging from group categorizations other than ethnicity, race, and religion.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cBecause it may not adequately fulfill the needs in conflict resolution, this article constitutes a normative gap. For example, if a group of people refers to someone as \u2018Kadrun\u2019, causing disturbances, disagreements, and suspicion against a certain group, this new article may not cover it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n

Furthermore, he commended the new regulations’ eagerness to provide more details on previous articles. Unfortunately, the second version of the ITE Law appears to be trapped in liberal principles in some clauses with normative gaps.<\/p>\n\n
