Abstract: One of the concepts upheld in human rights is freedom. Protection of it is guaranteed by Indonesian law which is formulated by norms. The constitution is the highest law that guarantees it. In fact, the existence of the ITE Law threatens freedom of expression from the substance of the regulations themselves. Phrases in it have the potential to ensnare individuals or groups that violate parameters applied. This paper discussed influence factors, potential impacts, and others. The assessment is carried out using a normative juridical method that brings together various theories for a comprehensive analysis. This study clarified overall that can be corrected in the future. The breadth of the terminology within has the potential to give a repressive legal reputation. The summary of the problem in this paper is how and to what extent the provisions in the ITE Law guarantee the protection of human rights, and to what extent the ITE Law actually violates human rights. Thus, this study provided new perspectives related to the protection of human rights in the ITE environment. Key Words:ITE Law, Freedom of Opinion, Mapping, Human Rights
