Abstract
Defamation is an event where social interaction in the community environment harms one party, both materially and immaterially. With the development of the digital world, which moves social interaction from the real world to the digital world, it causes a newtype of crime, namely defamation on social media, and this type of crime is included in the category of computer-related crime. The legal basis for enforcing this criminal act of pollution is regulated in the Criminal Code and Law Number 19 of 2016 concerningInformation and Electronic Transactions. With the existence of dif erent forms of accountability for perpetrators of criminal acts, this is the basis for the creation of this paper using the library research method.
