“行踪轨迹信息”刑法差异化保护思考

Thoughts on Differentiated Protection of Criminal Law of “Whereabouts Information”

行踪轨迹信息作为公民个人信息中较为重要的一类,刑法对其进行了差异化保护。但司法实践中,出现了诸如针对行踪轨迹信息重视不足、区分不清、说理不明的问题。行踪轨迹信息不仅具有公民个人信息的普遍属性,还具有人身利益的特有属性,具有刑法特殊保护的必要性。针对行踪轨迹信息,我们应当根据其属性科学厘定其内涵,并通过解释限制其外延。我们还应该通过完善前置法相关规定以对其进行更为全面的差异化保护。

As a relatively important category of citizens’ personal information, whereabouts information is protected by the criminal law. However, in judicial practice, there have been problems such as insufficient attention to information about whereabouts, unclear distinction, and unclear reasoning. The track information not only has the general attributes of citizens’ personal information, but also has the unique attributes of personal interests, which is necessary for the special protection of criminal law. Regarding the track information, we should scientifically determine its connotation based on its attributes, and limit its extension through interpretation. Based on the uniformity requirements of the legal system, we should also improve the relevant provisions of the pre-law to provide more comprehensive and differentiated protection.
