Transformation of Digital Literacy and Cyber Law in Rural Society: A Systematic Literature Review

Rural societies are often overlooked, as they are often considered to be limited in scope and seemingly less technologically skilled. Nevertheless, it is of utmost importance to ensure the widespread adoption of digital literacy throughout all corners of Indonesia, striving for equal distribution of digital literacy and improving the welfare of rural society by utilizing technological advancements. The purpose of this research is to examine the regulations relating to digital literacy in rural society in Indonesia and the development of digital literacy transformation in this rural society. The research approach was the literature review, which involves a critical exploration of knowledge, ideas, or findings in academic-oriented literature. The review covered articles published from 2018 to 2023 that are relevant to digital literacy in rural society. The results of the research showed that digital literacy is a government-driven initiative that aims to promote a deeper understanding of the digital realm among Indonesians, including rural society. These efforts are reinforced by legislation such as The Law of Electronic Information and Transaction (UU ITE) and other related regulations. Furthermore, the literature review also highlights that the development of digital literacy within rural society is steadily progressing in tandem with technological advancements, aligning with the nation’s goals for digital literacy programs in Indonesia.
