Epistemic (In)justice as A Process to Decoding Digital Information from Law Perspective
<div>In this digital era, information can be disseminated much easier due to the internet. Under openness&nbsp;<span style="font-size: 1rem;">principle of information on the internet, now we can access information relatively easily When those&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">condition is viewed from Epistemic Justice theory as postulated by Miranda Fricker means we are going&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">toward information justice since now almost every people can now contribute and access information, but&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">the reality says not all those information on social media is the right information, some information can be&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">categorized as mis-information some as dis-information. Based on those condition this research will then&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">questioning relevancy between Epistemic Justice in this digital era with legal consequences in Information&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">and Electronic Transactions Act. This is due to by implementing openness principle it means we can gain&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">almost any information but also any person now can contribute to provide information for another internet&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">user. With such conditions we must selective when choose who is our information provider since mis and&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">dis information in law paradigm can have negative impact toward law subject, and can have legal&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">consequences. Thats why we needs to rethink again, is from legal paradigm information justice is a good&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">idea, or do we need to set back to epistemic injustice. The idea to use injustice practice is due to in law&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">paradigm we must act carefully, and that’s why do we need to rethink again by being selective when we&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">read digital information</span></div>
