Abstract

This study aims to review; 1) What is the configuration of computer program piracy in Indonesia over time and the impact caused, both beneficiaries and disadvantaged parties?; 2) What is the ideal concept in dealing with computer program piracy in Indonesia?. The research method used is normative juridical research, which is research focused on examining the application of rules or norms in positive law. The results showed that; 1) Piracy of computer programs occurs due to factors of public legal awareness regarding copyright that needs to be considered by the government, regulation of copyright on computer programs for the public with sanctions provided by the Copyright Law. The economic ability of the community that affects the purchasing power of original computer programs that make using artificial computer programs an option. Information factors from the internet that facilitate access and acquisition of computer programs that are not original can then be distributed with the propagation of these computer programs. 2) Ethics and morals can be distinguished by using ethics and morals where morals are a value embedded in the human psyche is abstract as a means of human control to behave, while ethics as a manifestation of morals that appear in the form of behavior Human beings, in another sense, ethics are concrete. This means that justice is very closely related to the feelings of a person / public therefore the law (in the form of norms) must be able to respond to individual / public feelings if the law is to be used as a tool to realize justice, in connection with that it is certain to enforce legal norms that have responded to the feelings of justice of individuals / public must be people who also understand the sense of justice, Because it is very impossible when we expect the enforcement of legal norms that are fair to people who do not understand the meaning of justice itself. In line with the concept of justice according to Plato in Kelik Wardiono, which states justice in a country can be learned from good rules and soul.
