我国侵权责任法对隐私权的确认不是一个普通的法律事件,还是一个昭示时代精神转变的历史事件。在中国文化历史中,从宣扬"无私"到习惯"疑私"再到接受"隐私",这是对人的自由的肯定。自由是当代法律的精神所在,也是隐私权制度的核心价值,换言之,隐私权就是自由生活的权利。

The recognition of the right to privacy in the new published tort law is not an ordinary legal matter but an announcement of changing of time spirit.The change from advocacy of selflessness to the protection of privacy is a great development of Chinese cultural history.Liberty is the spirit of modern legal system and the core value of the right to privacy,as the right to privacy is the right to live free.
