JAKARTA - The Ministry of Communication and Digital has blocked the online site PeduliLindungi.id, after previously the site was successfully infiltrated by online gambling content.
Director General of Digital Space Supervision Alexander Sabar said that this step is a commitment to eradicate online gambling content and protection to the community.
"This action was taken following a public report regarding the emergence of online gambling content on the website," Alex explained in his official statement.
According to him, the results of the verification of the report accompanied by a link (URL) and screenshot show that the PeduliLindungi.id site has experienced infiltration (defacement) and displays content leading to online gambling sites.
Komdigi determined that the site had violated the principles of information security, and then cut off access to protect the public from potential data misuse and exposure to illegal content.
