Abstract

This study aims to formulate a more effective and efficient compensation mechanism for consumers harmed by business practices in Indonesia and to analyze the obstacles encountered in the legal reporting process by consumers. The research employs a normative approach, involving an in-depth review of applicable legislation, case law, and relevant literature. The findings reveal that, despite various regulations governing consumer protection, there are still several weaknesses in the compensation mechanisms and the legal reporting process. Consumers frequently face difficulties in obtaining fair and prompt compensation and encounter complex and time-consuming reporting procedures. These issues stem from several factors, including a lack of consumer legal awareness, ambiguities in regulatory formulations, and weak law enforcement. Based on these findings, the study concludes that there is a need to reformulate both the compensation mechanisms and the consumer legal reporting process Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merumuskan mekanisme ganti rugi yang lebih efektif dan efisien bagi konsumen yang dirugikan oleh tindakan pelaku usaha di Indonesia, serta menganalisis hambatan dalam proses pelaporan hukum yang dilakukan oleh konsumen.

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun terdapat berbagai peraturan yang mengatur perlindungan konsumen, masih terdapat beberapa kelemahan dalam mekanisme ganti rugi dan proses pelaporan hukum. Konsumen seringkali menghadapi kesulitan dalam memperoleh ganti rugi yang adil dan cepat, serta menghadapi prosedur pelaporan yang rumit dan memakan waktu. Hal ini disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor, antara lain kurangnya kesadaran hukum konsumen, ketidakjelasan dalam rumusan peraturan, serta lemahnya penegakan hukum. Berdasarkan temuan tersebut, penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa perlu dilakukan reformulasi terhadap mekanisme ganti rugi dan proses pelaporan hukum konsumen.

Abstract

Sexual harassment is an action or behavior that contains sexual elements that the victim does not want. Sexual harassment itself has a vast scope, for example in the form of writing, both physical and non-physical (poking, touching, caressing, hugging, and so on), displaying something that contains pornographic/dirty elements, indecent assault, or coercion. One example that is currently widespread is catcalling, namely verbal sexual harassment against women. Recently, it has been in the spotlight because of the many unpleasant incidents that happen to women. Until now, catcalling itself is still considered a common thing in society so that the perpetrators themselves are never given a deterrent effect, even though catcalling can also include verbal harassment which can be interpreted as the act of saying pornographic/sexual or flirtatious or itchy words. This sassy nature causes feelings of discomfort in someone who is the victim of harassment, even if it is just a joke. The research method used is a normative juridical and literature study, by analyzing a legal problem through statutory regulations, literature, and other reference materials. The formulation of the problem found in this research is firstly, does catcalling fulfill the elements of a criminal act of sexual harassment in terms of criminal law and human rights (HAM) in Indonesia and secondly, what is the purpose of this legal trap? perpetrators of catcalling crimes.

Abstract

Law is an important part of upholding justice for the protection of society thus the implementation of the law must provide benefits and usefulness to society so that the implementation of the law does not cause unrest and doubt in society. In this research, the author uses a type of legal research or what is more familiar in Indonesia, namely Normative Research through journal sources from various researchers. The research results show that legal protection for victims of stalking is substantial since stalking is a form of violence that can harm victims physically, mentally, and socially. Physically, stalking can cause injury and even death to its victims. Psychologically, stalking can cause anxiety, fear, stress, and depression in the victim. Furthermore, socially, stalking can isolate victims from their environment and cause them to lose self-confidence. In the Criminal Code and the Law, some articles can be linked to Stalking because they contain several elements of Stalking behaviour implicitly as in article 493 of the Criminal Code and article 317 of Law Number 1 of 2023. Considering the criminal aspects of the act explained previously, the act of stalking can be considered to fulfil the elements of a criminal act because stalking fulfils the aspects of human action.

Abstract

Protection of human rights (HAM) in the context of implementing press criminal law is a crucial issue that is developing along with the dynamics of development in society and technology. The existence of mass media as a means of information that has great influence is the focus in fulfilling and protecting human rights. Based on this background, this research questions three things, namely, first, what is the mechanism for applying criminal law in the context of mass media reporting. Second, what is the impact of criminal law policy on the protection of human rights in the practice of implementing criminal law. Third, what is the role of press freedom and media responsibilities in determining the boundaries between information protection and human rights protection. The method used is normative legal research, which involves collecting and analyzing legal data related to press criminal law regulations and policies. The main data sources include primary legal materials, such as statutory regulations, court decisions, and related laws and regulations. Apart from that, secondary data sources in the form of legal literature, scientific articles, and expert views are also used to strengthen the analysis. With this approach, it is hoped that this research can contribute to understanding the complexity of the relationship between press criminal law, human rights, and the dynamics of mass media in the context of press freedom and its responsibilities.

Abstract

Penelitian ini membahas implikasi yuridis dari perubahan kedua Undang-Undang Informasi dan Transaksi Elektronik (UU ITE) melalui Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 2024 terhadap partisipasi masyarakat dalam ruang siber, khususnya dalam konteks pemilihan umum (PEMILU). Dalam perkembangannya, UU ITE sering dianggap multitafsir dan represif, yang berpotensi menghambat kebebasan berpendapat. Pasal-pasal seperti Pasal 27A dan Pasal 27B, meskipun dirancang untuk menggantikan pasal-pasal sebelumnya yang dianggap "pasal karet," tetap menuai kritik karena masih menciptakan efek jera (chilling effect). Situasi ini memunculkan kekhawatiran akan pengurangan kualitas partisipasi masyarakat dalam proses demokrasi digital. Namun, kajian mengenai dampak perubahan kedua UU ITE terhadap kebebasan berekspresi dalam pemilu 2024 serta perbandingan regulasi internasional yang lebih proporsional masih terbatas, sehingga diperlukan penelitian lebih lanjut. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif untuk menganalisis implikasi perubahan UU ITE terhadap kebebasan berpendapat dan partisipasi masyarakat dalam pemilu. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa regulasi yang tidak jelas dalam UU ITE dapat memicu ketidakpastian hukum, memarjinalkan kelompok tertentu, dan menciptakan ketidaksetaraan dalam akses informasi. Reformasi UU ITE diperlukan untuk memastikan bahwa regulasi tersebut selaras dengan prinsip-prinsip demokrasi, melindungi kebebasan berpendapat, dan mendorong partisipasi masyarakat secara inklusif. Kebaruan penelitian ini terletak pada analisis spesifik terhadap pasal-pasal hasil revisi dalam UU No. 1 Tahun 2024 dan bagaimana perubahan tersebut berdampak pada kebebasan berekspresi dalam pemilu 2024, dengan pendekatan perbandingan global untuk mengusulkan regulasi ruang siber yang lebih adil dan demokratis. Studi ini merekomendasikan pendekatan berbasis prinsip demokrasi, peningkatan literasi digital, serta pelibatan berbagai pemangku kepentingan untuk menciptakan regulasi ruang siber yang adil dan responsif terhadap dinamika sosial.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of Articles 27, 28, and 45 of the Information and Electronic Transactions Law (UU ITE) in the context of freedom of expression and digital democracy in Indonesia, both before and after the 2016 and 2024 amendments. Utilizing a normative approach that integrates conceptual, comparative, and futuristic methods, the research aims to analyze how these regulatory changes affect political participation in cyberspace and foster a climate of surveillance that may hinder digital democracy. This study also employs positivist legal theory, justice theory, and human rights principles to understand the socio-political and legal implications of these provisions. The findings reveal that Article 27 on defamation, Article 28 on the dissemination of false information and hate speech, and Article 45 on criminal sanctions significantly impact freedom of expression. The implementation of these provisions is often ambiguous and subjective, leading to potential misuse for suppressing criticism of the government and public officials. Although the 2024 amendments introduced changes, such as the removal of Article 27 paragraph (3) and the addition of Articles 27A and 27B, challenges persist due to vague legal language and severe penalties. This ambiguity creates a "chilling effect," deterring individuals from expressing criticism or engaging in open political discourse in the digital sphere. Furthermore, the study explores the implications of these regulations for the future of digital democracy in Indonesia, particularly in the context of information control. The findings highlight that the UU ITE facilitates non-transparent surveillance, which restricts freedom of expression and political participation. To foster a healthier digital ecosystem, the study recommends more inclusive reforms of the UU ITE, involving various stakeholders, enhancing digital literacy, and promoting collaboration between the government, digital platforms, and society. This research contributes novel insights into the interaction between cyber regulations, freedom of expression, and digital democracy in Indonesia by offering policy perspectives that support fairer and more democratic cyber governance.
