Result from the circulation of Ariel's videos is hard; the singer is banned from performing at certain places in Indonesia. The ban is normal, because he violates the Ethics of Entertainment.
"The ban in an expression from the public. Not only Indonesia has such rules. The whole world also has the same rules" said Tika Bisono, psychology expert.
According to Tika, the circulation of the video had wide impact. Not only the person who made the video, but friends and family also had the impact. Public will judge them based on the norm applied in the society.
"Moral impact, pragmatic impact. Such video had major impact. They are on top of popularity. The story might differ if the person in the video is an average or unknown person" he added.
Before, Ariel already banned in Bandung. Mayor of Bandung, Dada Rosada stated that Ariel is prohibited from performing in Bandung. His band can still perform, as long the vocalist is not Ariel.
The ban in Bandung also applied to Luna Maya and Cut Tari. They are forbidden from doing artistic work in Bandung.
