This research is a normative legal research that aims to analyze the concept of the crime of extortion and threats through social media in the formulation of Article 27 paragraph (4) of the ITE Law and to analyze the considerations of judges in acquitting decisions (vrijspraak) against cases of criminal acts of extortion and threats through social media in Mataram District Court Decision No. 272/Pid.Sus/2019/PN.Mtr. The results of the research are analyzed that the previous offense of extortion and threats (afpersing en afdreiging) in the Criminal Code were two different crimes, but the ITE Law formulates the crime of extortion and threats in one formulation of the Article.
