Abstract

Advances in information technology have given rise to various new forms of crime in the digital realm, one of which is revenge porn, namely the act of spreading intimate content without consent as a form of revenge, generally carried out by ex-partners. This phenomenon has a serious impact on the psychological condition of victims, especially women, while existing legal instruments often do not provide optimal protection. This research focuses on analyzing legal protection for victims of revenge porn in Indonesia and examining the dynamics of the relationship between the perpetrator and the victim from a legal psychology perspective. The methodology used is normative juridical legal research with a qualitative approach through literature study. Data sources were obtained from primary, secondary and tertiary legal materials, which were then analyzed using descriptive-analytical methods. The findings show that even though there are regulations such as the TPKS Law, ITE Law, and Pornography Law, protection for victims is still not effective. Victims often experience victim blaming, social pressure and psychological trauma without adequate recovery. This research concludes that the current legal protection approach is retributive and does not provide comprehensive recovery for victims. Therefore, an interdisciplinary approach is needed that integrates legal, psychological and gender aspects, as well as strengthening psychosocial rehabilitation as part of restorative justice.
