Including The 'Blood Fant', Six Facebook Groups Blocked By Komdigi

JAKARTA - The Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs (Komdigi) cut off access or blocked six Facebook groups. One of them is the 'Bloody Fantasy' group that has recently been widely discussed by netizens.

The Director General of Digital Space Supervision of the Ministry of Komdigi, Alexander Sabar, said that the content in the group is a serious violation of children's rights. This step is taken to protect children from potentially damaging digital content.

"We immediately coordinated with Meta to block the community group. This group is classified as the spread of understanding that is contrary to the prevailing norms in society," Alexander said as quoted from an official written statement, Saturday, May 17, 2025.

"The group contains adult family member fantasy content for the biological family, especially for minors," he said.

Furthermore, Alexander appreciated the quick response from Meta as a platform provider who immediately followed up on requests for termination of access.

Moreover, this termination of access is also part of the implementation of Government Regulation (PP) Number 17 of 2025 concerning Governance of Electronic System Implementation in Child Protection (PP Tunas).

This rule regulates the obligation of every digital platform to protect children from exposure to harmful content and guarantees children's right to grow in a safe and healthy digital environment.

"So, the role of digital platforms in moderating content in digital spaces is very crucial in providing protection," he said.

In the future, the Ministry of Communication and Industry will continue to strengthen supervision of digital activities that deviate and increase cross-sectoral cooperation in order to create a clean, healthy national digital space and side with the interests of the next generation of the nation.

However, Alexander emphasized that the success of maintaining digital space does not only depend on the government and platform providers. Active community participation is also needed.

"We urge the public to help maintain a safe and trusted digital space and participate in providing supervision of any content or digital activity that endangers the future of our child. Immediately report negative digital content and activities through the complaint channel.id," he said.
