(Observation of the Two Sessions) Governance of "Internet violence": How to crack the "button hurting people"?

　　China News Agency, Beijing, March 10th (Reporter Liu Liang) The number of mobile Internet users in China has reached 1.45 billion. In the Internet era where everyone can speak through the keyboard, how to crack the "button hurting people" will be discussed during the National Two Sessions this year. received the attention of delegates.

　　According to the analysis of representative members, there are three main causes of cyber violence incidents.

　　First, the cost of breaking the law is too low.

According to Chen Lina, a deputy to the National People's Congress and a full-time member of the Procuratorate Committee of the Procuratorate of Xinle City, Hebei Province, the cost of "cyber violence" is too low, which has weakened netizens' moral standards and law-abiding awareness to a certain extent.

At the same time, due to the invisibility and group nature of the Internet, some netizens "press the button to hurt people" with the mentality that the law does not blame the public.

　　Second, the legal definition of "cyber violence" is vague.

National People's Congress representative, founder and chairman of TCL Li Dongsheng pointed out that the current legal level lacks a precise definition of cyber violence and a clear and operable judicial interpretation, which leads to the difficulty of illegal activities and subject identification in the governance of cyber violence, and the collection of illegal evidence Problems such as difficulty and long governance cycle not only increase the cost of rights protection, but also affect the normalization of cyber violence governance.

　　Third, the network platform failed to defend the soil.

Wang Xuekun, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and director of the China Youth Research Center, found that some online platforms lack strict review mechanisms. Driven by traffic and economic benefits, unverified self-media speeches are allowed to be published, resulting in continuous expansion of negative reputation and causing serious harm to the parties involved. harm.

　　The plight of victims of cyberbullying has received increasing attention.

How to further solve the difficulty of "button hurting people", during the two sessions of the country this year, deputies to the National People's Congress and members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference also brought their own plans.

　　At the legal level, in view of the low cost of cyber violence perpetrators who commit crimes anonymously, Li Dongsheng suggested that an anti-cyber violence law be introduced as soon as possible, clearly define the definition and scope of cyber violence from the legal level, and guide judicial practice with specific legal provisions.

At the same time, establish a cyber violence blacklist mechanism and a monitoring and law enforcement system, blacklist individuals or organizations involved in cyber violence, and take measures such as limiting traffic, banning speech, and closing accounts.

　　On the regulatory level, Wei Zhenling, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and director of the Seventh Procuratorate of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region People's Procuratorate, emphasized that we must start with a preventive mechanism.

Website platforms must establish and improve early warning and prevention mechanisms for cyberbullying, detect abnormal behaviors of cyberbullying in a timely manner, strengthen the protection of those involved in cyberbullying, and strictly prevent the spread of cyberbullying information.

In addition, there is currently no clear basis for determining the legal responsibilities of online platforms, advertising entities, and corresponding regulatory authorities. It is still necessary to further improve the cyberbullying governance system and clarify and consolidate the responsibilities of relevant entities.

　　From the perspective of personal rights protection awareness, Wei Zhenling believes that the parties should save relevant information in a timely manner by taking screenshots, recording screens, etc., and go to the notary office to fix the evidence in a notarized manner.

For the main perpetrators who leak a large amount of personal information, insult, and slander, they can complain to the platform in a timely manner, and depending on the specific situation, they can file a complaint with the Internet Information Department, report the case to the public security department, or file a lawsuit in the court.

　　This year's China's "Two Highs" reports have focused on the governance of cyber violence. It is foreseeable that more effective measures will be taken to curb "button hurting people" in the future, and a clearer cyberspace is worth looking forward to.
