Abstract

As technology advances in Indonesia, the spread of immoral content in electronic media has become increasingly rampant. The Electronic Information and Transaction Law (ITE Law) is a crucial regulation that needs strict enforcement. Its purpose is to protect users of technology and information media, ensuring they feel secure from internet-related crimes and have legal certainty regarding electronic transactions. The reason for addressing this issue is the widespread use of electronic media. In this modern era, many individuals, both adults and children, are highly active on social media. The circulation of immoral videos is particularly troubling for the community, highlighting the need for individuals to be discerning and wise about the content they consume. Immoral videos can negatively influence people of all ages, often leading to promiscuous behavior and potentially ruining futures. For victims of the spread of immoral content, the impact can be severe, affecting their psychological condition and mental health, and instilling fear and shame that deter them from reporting these acts. To address this issue, the author employs a normative legal research method, which is straightforward and accessible to all readers. This method focuses on a logical and expressive framework based on analytical research. The aim is to adapt to and reflect the evolving legal landscape in Indonesia. The goal of this research is to promote law enforcement through the imposition of penalties, specifically through repressive efforts. Repressive efforts are the last resort, intended to sanction offenders to prevent them from repeating their unlawful actions and to serve as a deterrent, thus protecting society from harm.
