CyberShield Technology: Innovation of FaceID-Based Technology in Preventing the Spread of Sexual Content

Abstract

This study focuses on discussing the distribution of non-consensual intimate content or non-consensual
dissemination of intimate images (NCII) as a form of Online Gender-Based Violence (KBGO). The increasing
use of technology has added a new dimension to cybercrime. The mode of distributing sexually nuanced videos
belonging to victims has had a negative impact on their psychology. By using analytical descriptive methods and
conceptual approaches, statutory approaches, and comparative approaches, this study aims to determine the
relevance of the term revenge porn in interpreting the distribution of non-consensual intimate content, regulating
the distribution of non-consensual intimate content in Indonesian positive law and providing innovations in
preventing and handling violence in the context of digital media in casu NCII. The results of the study show, First,
the use of the term revenge porn is no longer relevant to be used in referring to the phenomenon of the distribution
of non-consensual intimate content. Second, Indonesia already has special regulations regarding sexual violence
regulated in Law No. 12 of 2022 concerning Criminal Acts of Sexual Violence (UU TPKS) which already includes
KBGO. Third, the government’s steps in preventing sexual violence in cyberspace are still minimal. Prevention
efforts cannot be done only in terms of normative and educational provision, but also require technology-based
innovation. The author tries to make a comparison with the UK and Meta Platform in terms of implementing
face id-based technology.
