Indonesian Police Arrest, Publicly Shame 2 Women for Camming

JAKARTA, Indonesia — West Jakarta police arrested and publicly shamed two young Indonesian women for nude camming earlier this week, charging them with pornography.

The two women were arrested after “Cyber Patrol” officers monitoring popular camming platform Dream Live saw them dancing in the nude in separate streams. The West Jakarta Police Department told the press that its Cyber Patrol regularly monitors the internet for local pornographic content.

The police later displayed the detainees, ages 21 and 19, for assembled photographers at a press conference. 

“We confiscated 14 items as evidence, including the clothes they wore during the livestream, a phone, a book, and pornographic screenshots,” West Jakarta Police Crime Investigation Unit Chief Commissioner Andri Kurniawan told the press.

The police also arrested a 33-year-old man accused of managing the women, and are currently seeking another eight of his models.

The three were each charged with distribution of pornographic content online under the Information and Electronic Transactions Act. The law punishes producers of erotic content with a maximum of six years in prison or a fine of 1 billion Indonesian rupiahs ($65,962).

Indonesia-Style Policing a Goal of U.S. Anti-Porn Activists

Last month, Indonesian police also arrested a popular 22-year-old influencer and cosplayer for an NSFW Instagram live feed.

The spokesperson for the Bengkulu Police Grand Commissioner said at a press conference that the woman carried out an obscene act on social media “for the sake of gifts and tips.”

As XBIZ reported, under the country's harsh 2008 obscenity law, Law 44, Indonesia — including Bali, a popular destination for tourists, expats and influencers — has become notorious for recurring arrests of locals and foreigners making and sharing content online.

“The country’s ambiguous pornography laws have led to the jailing of people over adult content and leaked sex tapes, including celebrities,” noted news site Coconuts Bali last year, when another Instagram influencer was detained for alleged indecent content. “Even so, some Indonesians still break the law, with a number of content makers active on adult platforms such as OnlyFans, which is popular among sex workers.”

Indonesia-style policing of online content by law enforcement and civilian informers — including the jailing and public shaming of any adult creator — is one of the ultimate goals of anti-porn crusaders in the U.S.
