: When pranks are recorded and shared on social media, they can quickly go viral. Public reaction can vary; some might find the prank funny and entertaining, while others might criticize the prankster for wasting the driver's time or causing them distress.
The entertainment value of these pranks is increasingly scrutinized by the Indonesian public. While memes and digital humor are vital to Gen Z identity in Indonesia, there is a growing push for "meme literacy" to prevent the normalization of behavior that harms others.
Ojol drivers, or motorcycle taxi drivers, are a vital part of Indonesia's transportation ecosystem, providing affordable and convenient rides to millions of people. However, they often work long hours, are exposed to various risks, and may face challenges in asserting their rights. The prank culture that targets ojol drivers can be particularly problematic, as it may exploit their vulnerability and lack of awareness about the potential consequences of participating in such pranks.
