Abstract

Juridical analysis of the distribution of violence content on social media platforms, with a greater focus on the perspective of human rights (HAM) and LawNumber 1 of 2024 concerning the Second Amendment to LawNumber 11 of 2008 on Information and Electronic Transactions (ITE Law). Using a qualitative normative-empirical approach, this study integrates Gustav Radbruch's theory of legal purposes, Soerjono Soekanto's theory of Lawenforcement, and the human rights theories of John Locke and Jack Donnelly. Data were obtained from in-depth interviews with officers from the Semarang Police Resort Cyber Unit and literature studies. Findings indicate that ITE Law is effective normatively but weak in implementation, with challenges such as technical limitations and low public awareness. The distribution of violence content often violates victims' human rights, creating a dilemma between freedom of expression and the protection of dignity.
