Abstract

Internet and social media advancement leads to unrestricted communication exchange, including the personal detail information exposure. Cyber crimes are thus potential and one of the riskiest consequeneces is doxing; the personal data distribution without rights. Doxing is categorized as a cybercrime because it results in public insults, fake registration for services, hostage of interest, treath, and other harmful acts. This is normative research by using legal and theoritical approaches. The research aims to decide the qualification of acts of personal information distribution without rights on social media and to analyze the regulation about personal detail protection in relation to criminal liability in sharing the given data without rights on social media. The legal instruments used in this research are regulation, books, journals, published articles in media or individual relating to personal data, and KBBI (Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia). We also used grammatical law and futuristic interpretations as a legal material analysis. The research shows that the act of the personal data distribution on social media is a crime and the doer can be criminalized. There are few regulation ruling the personal data protection and its misusage in Indonesia. However, Law No 24 Year 2013 about Law Amendment No 23 Year 2006 about population administration underlies the law enforcement to this act.
