By using the library research method, this research will become one of the writings that become a reference for the community to avoid the spread of hoax news. The ITE Law has provided a provision that perpetrators of hoax news spread will receive criminal sanctions based on a quo Law and also the Criminal Code. Therefore, the role of social media literacy is the most appropriate solution to dealing with this problem.
