人肉搜索与隐私侵犯

Human Flesh Search and Intrusion to Privacy

人肉搜索只是一种搜索方式,但因为其对隐私的揭示使之成为暴露隐私的专有名词,这是一种误解,从而引起人们对它的赞扬或讨伐。侵犯隐私和人肉搜索并不存在对等关系,隐私保护也不是绝对的。对普通人来说,其隐私理应受到尊重,但对公众人物合理介入隐私也可以满足公民的知情权,实行舆论监督之功能。

Human flesh search engine is only a way to search information and its involvement in the search of privacy makes it featured with intrusion to the privacy. This misunderstanding on human flesh search engine leads to the controversy. But human flesh search engine is not equal to the intrusion to privacy and the right to privacy is not absolute. For the ordinary person, the right to privacy should be respected and protected, while the reasonable privacy exposure of the public figures could satisfy the citizen＇s right to know and make the public scrutiny possible.
