Legal Protection Of Citizens' Privacy In The Age Of Big Data

With the development of computer technology,especially the close connection between computing technology and cloud computing,which has brought us to enter a new space – “data space”.This undoubtedly has made our life greatly convienient with fast pace and more intelligence.However,problems derived from the development come out at the same time.For example,we are all digitized and become the avatar of a string of data in the “data space”.These data are extremely easy to be leaked and so does our privacy contained in these data.We are almost transparent in face of the data.It is a great and unprecedented challenge we are facing how to strike a balance between citizen privacy protection and the development of big data industry.Therefore,the protection of citizens' privacy rights is more urgent.To a large extent,the protection of civil privacy plays a vital role in big data's development prospects.Therefore,foreign countries attach great importance to the protection of the privacy of citizens in big data era.Foreign countries have mainly formed a legislative protection model based on the European Union and an industry self-discipline protection model based on the United States.The EU legislative protection model and the American industry self-regulatory protection model are based on different perspectives to protect the privacy of citizens.The EU is mainly based on its own political attributes and social values,while the United States pays more attention to economic attributes and private values.China is also actively addressing the negative impact of big data's time on the protection of privacy,but the relevant legislation is not perfect.The main manifestation is tort liability law,the general principles of civil law and relevant laws,although the citizens have the right to privacy,but there are general provisions,poor operability defects.On the basis of clear understanding of the problems existing in the protection of the right of privacy of citizens in big data's time,the author combines the actual situation of our country and draws lessons from the foreign modes of protection of privacy,and thus puts forward the solution to the protection of the right of privacy of citizens under the era of big data.In order to solve this problem to contribute their own modest strength.Big data's development is in the ascendant,the protection of citizen right of privacy is also urgent.How to strengthen the protection of citizen's right of privacy in big data's time has become one of the most important topics in the field of law.The research on this subject not only contributes to the protection of human rights,but also to the development of economy.
