KEABSAHAN PENGGUNAAN SITUS PEER-TO-PEER FILE SHARING DITINJAU DARI UNDANG-UNDANG NO. 28 TAHUN 2014 TENTANG HAK CIPTA

Abstract

This article examines the legal protection of copyrighted works on peer-to-peer file sharing sites under Indonesian Copyright Law No. 28 of 2014, employing legal protection theory and a statutory approach, thus constituting normative research. It identifies government blocking of these sites as the primary legal protection. For unauthorized distribution, copyright owners can pursue civil lawsuits, criminal reports, interim/arbitration orders (repressive measures), and report sites for blocking to the Ministry of Communication and Informatics (Kemkominfo) as a preventive measure.
