STUDI KASUS SEBUAH ANCAMAN TERHADAP PRIVASI KASUS DOXING DI INDONESIA DALAM PERSPEKTIF HUKUM DAN ETIKA

Abstract

Doxing, or the practice of revealing one's personal information without permission, has become a critical issue in today's digital era. This paper discusses the issue of doxing in the Indonesian context, focusing on legal ethics, legal regulations, and their effectiveness in preventing doxing. This research uses the case study method and analyzes doxing cases involving public actors such as Jefri Nichol and human rights activist Veronica Koman. These cases illustrate the negative impacts of doxing on individuals, including threats of crime, disclosure of personal information, and psychological trauma. Legal regulations in Indonesia, such as the Electronic Information and Transaction Law (UU ITE) and the Personal Data Protection Law (UU PDP), provide a legal framework to protect personal data and punish doxers. However, the effectiveness of these regulations depends on strong law enforcement and public education on the importance of digital privacy. By improving digital literacy, effective law enforcement, and collaboration between legal institutions, digital platforms, and communities, we can prevent doxing and create a digital environment that is safer, more ethical, and respectful of individual privacy. These steps are essential to safeguarding individuals' privacy rights, preventing cases of doxing, and ensuring healthy and responsible online interactions.
