- Abstract
The discovery of phishing website advertisements served by the Google AdWords advertising platform, which then raises the question of whether Google AdWords has filtered the advertisements that have been submitted and will be served on its advertising services and whether Google as the provider of the Google AdWords advertising platform can be punished for phishing advertisements that appear in its advertising services. Phishing is a criminal tool that functions to steal sensitive information belonging to users and commit crimes on the Internet for the benefit of phishers who can harm victims. Provisions regarding phishing are regulated in Law No. 11 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions. The research method used is the normative juridical method with a statutory approach. Using deductive analysis to analyze legal materials. The results of the research show that Google must be responsible for its advertising platform, namely Google AdWords for advertising phishing websites, where this has violated the rules in Law No. 11 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions Article 28 Paragraph (1).
