In August 2020, Tempo.co was among several targets of a cyberattack that involved website defacement and compromise of social media accounts. The attack affected journalists, academics, and activists who had been critical of Jakarta’s COVID‑19 response, and it was part of a pattern of similar incidents linked to critiques of Papuan issues and anti‑corruption legislation. A digital rights group documented the coordinated nature of these attacks, while government officials denied any involvement and suggested the possibility of third‑party provocation. Tempo.co publicly condemned the interference with its press operations and emphasized that existing regulatory mechanisms exist for addressing media disputes. The incident highlighted the outlet’s role as a voice that reports on sensitive topics and its vulnerability to digital threats. These facts constitute the publicly known aspects of Tempo.co’s profile based on the available information.
