- Abstract
The existence of the law has regulated the follow-up to cybercrime or cybercrime in the hate speech category through the laws in the Criminal Code and the ITE Law. Not enough to solve the problem, the law actually creates a negative stigma in the form of restrictions on freedom of expression. The purpose of writing this research journal is to find out how democracy views freedom of expression, what the role of society and government should be in keeping up with the times, and how the role of law in overcoming cybercrime in Indonesia should be. Furthermore, it is hoped that this research can answer the problems found, provide an overview of the wise way of social media, and make it easier for readers to know the difference between criticism and insults. The research method used is a descriptive analytic method where the author tries to provide an overview based on facts and data that has been collected. The results show that hate speech arises due to unscrupulous spreaders of slander or hoax news so that it leads the opinions of other social media users to also hate people who are slandered and the loss of people’s trust due to the government not fulfilling its promises.
