人肉搜索问题与刑法规制

Regulation of Human Flesh Search Issue Through the Criminal Law

学界关于隐私权的内涵、隐私的利用以及与其他权利的冲突如何界定并没有完全达成一致,我国对隐私侵权的构成要件也未有实体法的规定。姓名、电话号码等个人信息的本质属性是社会交往中的个体识别标志,而非单纯的个人隐私。人肉搜索可以细分为不同的阶段,前期单纯的搜索他人姓名、电话等个人信息的行为,与其后参与搜索者实施的侮辱行为应区别对待,不能笼统的认为人肉搜索行为是侵犯隐私权的行为。作为一种新兴的信息获取手段,其存在有许多积极的社会意义,不能因噎废食一概加以否定。在民法未对隐私的内涵做出明示的规定,行政法未满足公民应有的知情权之前,不宜运用刑法手段调整人肉搜索问题。

The agreement to the connotation of the rights of privacy,the advantage of the privacy and the conflict among the other rights has not yet been reached in the educational circle.In our country,there is no substantive law to stipulate the important conditions constituting the privacy aggressive act.The essential attribute of the personal information,such as names,telephone numbers,etc is a kind of signal of an individual recognition in social activities,not a simple personal secret.The human flesh search can be classified into different periods.The act to merely search for the other person＇s personal information,such as names or telephone numbers at the early stage should be treated distinctively to the insulting act conducted on the victims.We can not generally regard the human flesh search as an aggressive act to the rights of privacy.As a newly-emerging means of getting information,its existence has a lot of positive social meanings,which means we can not deny sweepingly.It＇s not proper to regulate the human flesh search issue through the criminal law before the rules of the connotation of the rights of privacy has been made in the civil law and the civil rights of knowing the facts have been met in the administration law.
