Human Rights and Digital Censorship as Legal Boundaries to Control Access to Pornographic Content
This research aims to analyze the legal considerations that prevent a person from being convicted when accessing pornographic content and identify the implications that arise from the consumption of such content. The main focus of this research is how legal regulations in various countries, including Indonesia, regulate access to pornography and the extent of the application of criminal law. The research method used is a normative juridical method with a statute approach and conceptual approach. Data is obtained through literature study, including rules and regulations, court decisions, academic literature, and social media. The results show that the non-criminalization of individuals who access pornography is based on the principle of no crime without a clear legal basis and the right to individual privacy. Most regulations place more emphasis on criminalizing the production, distribution, and dissemination of pornographic content than personal consumption. However, some countries apply exceptions in some instances, such as the consumption of child pornography, which is expressly prohibited.

Organized Crime in the Trade of Endangered Fauna: A Study of Environmental Law and Criminal Law Policies and Their Enforcement in Indonesia
This study examines the environmental and criminal law policies in force in Indonesia, as well as the effectiveness of law enforcement in dealing with organized crime related to the trade in endangered fauna. Although existing regulations such as Law Number 5 of 1990 concerning Conservation of Natural Resources and Ecosystems and Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Protection and Management of the Environment have regulated the protection of endangered fauna, this study found that its implementation in the field still faces various challenges, including weak coordination between law enforcement agencies, lack of human resources and technology, and limitations in enforcing criminal sanctions. Using the “deterrence theory” and “collaborative governance theory” approaches, this study analyzes how criminal sanctions and cross-sectoral cooperation can improve the effectiveness of law enforcement against organized crime. The results of the study show that although the criminal sanctions regulated are quite strict, their effectiveness is still weak due to the lack of certainty of enforcement and low collaboration between agencies. This study also highlights the importance of the role of local communities (Customary Institutions) and monitoring technology to support efforts to conserve endangered fauna in the TNKS area. This study provides strategic recommendations to strengthen law enforcement through increased inter-agency coordination, the use of more sophisticated monitoring technology, and expanding international cooperation to address organized crime networks operating across borders.
