Mengoptimalkan Hukum Transaksi Elektronik untuk Melindungi Anak dari Risiko Konten Digital
Abstract
General Background: The Information and Electronic Transactions Law (ITE) serves as a regulatory framework for activities concerning information and communication technology, aiming to protect users and operators in the digital realm. Specific Background: This study addresses the implementation of the ITE Law, particularly focusing on safeguarding children from inappropriate digital content. Knowledge Gap: Despite existing regulations, there remains a lack of effective application and oversight regarding the exposure of minors to harmful content on platforms like TikTok. Aims: This research seeks to explore optimal strategies for implementing the ITE Law to enhance child protection in the digital environment and to propose normative recommendations for creating safer online spaces. Results: Using a normative juridical approach, the findings highlight the necessity of enforcing Article 16A, Paragraph (4) of the revised ITE Law to regulate content specifically targeting underage users. Novelty: The research emphasizes the importance of collaborative efforts among stakeholders, including parents, educators, and community members, to actively participate in safeguarding children from inappropriate digital exposure. Implications: The study underscores the need for stricter content regulation on social media platforms and advocates for increased accountability from digital service providers, ensuring a safer and more supportive digital landscape for children.
Highlights:
- Technological Advances: Enhances convenience but risks exposing children to harmful content.
- Regulatory Framework: ITE Law ensures protection for minors in digital environments.
- Stakeholder Collaboration: Parents and educators must actively participate in enforcement efforts.
