The development of digital technology and the increasing use of social media among junior high school students demands the strengthening of digital literacy and internet ethics in the learning context. This study aims to systematically analyze research findings related to the influence of digital literacy on internet ethics, the role of schools and teachers, the contribution of digital literacy to learning, and the forms of internet risk behavior experienced by junior high school students. The research method used is a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) by analyzing five journal articles indexed by SINTA and Scopus published in the period 2023–2025. The data analysis process was carried out using thematic analysis to identify key themes according to the research questions. The synthesis results show that digital literacy has a significant influence on the formation of internet ethics and social media behavior of students in the use of social media for learning. Schools and teachers have a strategic role in strengthening digital literacy and internet ethics through mentoring, habituation, and integration of digital literacy programs in learning. Digital literacy also supports students' ability to sort information and improves the quality of learning interactions. However, risky internet behaviors such as exposure to unverified information and uncontrolled social media use are still found, so strengthening digital ethics and ongoing supervision is needed.
