At an Indonesian parliamentary hearing on Wednesday, Google, Meta and TikTok argued against planned revisions to the country’s copyright law. Google’s government affairs manager, Agung Pamungkas, told lawmakers that making platforms pay for links to news would limit Indonesians’ access to it, and Meta’s Berni Moestafa said publishers could lose readership and advertising revenue. TikTok’s Indonesia policy chief, Noudhy Valdryno, asked for AI-assisted content to be exempt from disclosure rules and for safe-harbour protections to be kept.

Why it matters

If passed, digital platforms would have to compensate publishers for displaying news, and the bill would set rules for AI in copyright law.
