JURIDICAL STUDY OF THE REGULATION OF CINEMATOGRAPHIC WORK VIEWING ON DIGITAL STREAMING PLATFORMS BASED ON THE INDONESIAN LEGAL SYSTEM

Abstract

The viewing of cinematographic works on digital streaming platforms has become a
significant phenomenon in the modern entertainment industry. Along with the ease of access,
it also raises various legal issues, especially related to censorship and content control, and
legal enforcement of censorship regulations and limitations in censorship of
cinematographic works on digital streaming platforms has become a hot topic of discussion.
This research aims to analyse the law enforcement of censorship regulations on
cinematographic works and the factors that influence the limitations in censoring
cinematographic works on digital streaming platforms. This research uses a normative
juridical method by conducting a qualitative approach and analysing laws and regulations
and opinions of legal experts. This research found that there are complexities and challenges
in law enforcement against content censorship on digital streaming platforms, such as the
lack of clarity of the parties entitled to censor cinematographic works on digital streaming
platforms, and a vacuum in supervision of digital streaming platforms because the
characteristics of digital streaming platforms are not fulfilled with the concept of
broadcasting contained in broadcasting regulations.
