| With the global penetration of the Internet,the Internet is no longer a virtual space for communication with virtual identities,but gradually de-virtualized the Internet through IP display,video shooting,human flesh search,etc.,and minors’ information is gradually clear and transparent on the Internet,and violations of minors’ privacy have also become new infringement methods.However,the protection of minors’ privacy relies on guardians,and there are often situations that are out of the scope of guardian supervision in the online environment,making minors’ privacy rights more likely to be violated,and it is more difficult to protect their rights after being violated.By studying the privacy protection of minors in the context of the Internet,this paper aims to reduce infringement,promote guardians to actively help minors establish correct privacy concepts,and actively protect the rights of minors.This paper summarizes the relevant provisions and existing problems of the current civil law through normative analysis and empirical analysis,analyzes the provisions on the protection of minors’ privacy rights through general laws to special laws,legal rules to implementation rules,and summarizes the problems into two aspects: lack of provisions and insufficient protection.Through comparative analysis,the relevant provisions of the United States and the European Union are studied,the differences in ethical,legal and practical foundations of the United States,the European Union and China on the protection of minors’ privacy rights are compared,and finally two principles for improving the civil law protection of minors’ privacy are proposed: to protect the privacy of minors from infringement by protecting personal information;Ensure post-event rights protection by promoting guardians’ active exercise of guardianship rights. |
