According to a number of media reports, the cause of the incident is suspected to be Wang Bingbing's crazy fans speaking in a forum. The fan said that Wang Bingbing "collapsed the house" and posted some screenshots, including photos of Wang Bingbing's "early wedding scene" (the bride only showed her side face and could not determine the specific identity), as well as suspected "English level four results". The figure shows a score of 369 (the passing line is 425 points). In this regard, many netizens also left messages saying that the fourth level has not been passed once and cannot explain anything, "after all, there is a second chance."
At present, CCTV and Wang Bingbing have not responded to this.
"Human flesh search" is suspected of violating the law
Over the years, the topic of public figure privacy exposure is not uncommon, and netizens have discussed it with a high degree. So, the question is, is "human flesh" other person information against the law? How should people safeguard their legitimate rights and interests? On the 12th, a reporter from China News Network interviewed a number of lawyers on this issue to explain the doubts of netizens.
Lawyer Jia Hong, a lawyer who is a rights partner at Beijing Zhongwen Law Firm, said that "human flesh search" takes the illegal use of other people's personal information and the illegal dissemination of other people's private information as the main form of expression. "It ('human flesh search') involves violating the law, which may infringe on the privacy rights, reputation rights, name rights, portrait rights, etc. of others, and may also involve insults and defamation and illegal access to personal information."
She noted that the Civil Code provided for the right to privacy for natural persons. No organization or individual may infringe upon the privacy rights of others by means of spying, intrusion, leakage, or disclosure. Privacy is the private space, private activities, and private information of natural persons whose private life is peaceful and unwilling to be known to others.
In addition, the personal information of natural persons is protected by law. Personal information is all kinds of information recorded electronically or otherwise that can identify a specific natural person, either alone or in combination with other information, including the natural person's name, date of birth, ID number, biometric information, address, telephone number, e-mail address, health information, whereabouts information, etc.
"The provisions on privacy rights shall apply to the private information in personal information; if there is no provision, the provisions on the protection of personal information shall apply." She noted.

For example, lawyer Jia Hong said that whether or not you are married, divorced and unpublished wedding photos are private information, not ordinary personal information. Article 42 of the Law of the People's Republic of China on Administrative Penalties for Public Security stipulates that whoever commits any of the following acts shall be detained for not more than five days or fined not more than 500 yuan; if the circumstances are more serious, he shall be detained for not less than 5 days but not more than 10 days, and may also be fined not more than 500 yuan: (1) writing threatening letters of intimidation or threatening the personal safety of others by other means; (2) blatantly insulting others or fabricating facts to slander others; (3) fabricating facts to frame others in an attempt to make others criminally prosecuted or punished by the administration of public security; (4) Threatening, insulting, beating, or retaliating against witnesses and their close relatives; (5) repeatedly sending obscene, insulting, intimidating, or other information to interfere with the normal lives of others; (6) voyeurism, secretly filming, eavesdropping, or disseminating the privacy of others.
"The privacy rights of public figures need to be transferred and restricted within a certain range, and while enjoying public attention and the benefits obtained by public figures, they also need to give up the exercise of some personal privacy rights, but the transfers and restrictions (commented on) need to be within a certain reasonable range." Jia Hong said that the information about whether Wang Bingbing was married or divorced before, combined with the information of wedding photos, love blogs, and improper evaluations that did not know whether they were true or false, was not a normal evaluation that should be tolerated.
"Moreover, the current information about (suspected) CET IV in his college is obviously only provided that time, and it is somewhat taken out of context." She said.
How do I enforce my rights? Ideas!
Wan Fangliang, a lawyer at Beijing Deliang Law Firm, mentioned that previously, the State Internet Information Office issued the Provisions on the Ecological Governance of Online Information Content. According to the regulations, users, producers, and platforms of online information content services must not carry out illegal activities such as online violence, human flesh searches, deep forgery, traffic fraud, and account manipulation.
In addition, Article 111 of the Civil Code of the People's Republic of China stipulates: "The personal information of natural persons shall be protected by law. Where any organization or individual needs to obtain others' personal information, it shall lawfully obtain and ensure information security, and must not illegally collect, use, process, or transmit others' personal information, and must not illegally buy, sell, provide, or disclose others' personal information. ”
In the face of "human flesh", personal privacy information is maliciously leaked and disseminated, how should we protect our rights? Lawyer Jia Hong said that first of all, it is necessary to do a good job of evidence collection in a timely manner, retain the infringing page and the infringer's user information page, and prepare for subsequent rights protection. Second, send a compliant deletion notice to the information publishing platform. For example, the right holder, the proof of rights, the infringing information and the deletion request are listed.
"Finally, if the situation is still not under control, civil litigation, criminal private prosecution (insult and defamation) and the police can be used." Jia Hong said.
Wan Fangliang also reminded that after the promulgation of the Civil Code, from the level of the code, the so-called human flesh search is strictly prohibited, protecting the privacy and reputation rights of the parties, indicating that the law has strengthened the protection of individual rights. If someone uses the so-called "human flesh search" to infringe on the legitimate rights and interests of others, they can protect their rights in accordance with law.

Pathological star chasing touches the legal bottom line
On January 10, a large number of related content of "Wang Bingbing Collapsed House" suddenly appeared on the Internet, which triggered heated discussion among netizens for a time. The cause of the incident is suspected to be the speech of a crazy fan of CCTV female reporter Wang Bingbing in a forum, who said that Wang Bingbing "collapsed the house" and "human flesh" out of his various private information. For some time, some chaos in the "rice circle" has been continuous, including some "bastard meals" crazy, excessive star chasing, "voyeurism" of the daily life of the star, and even caused trouble to the star himself. Some netizens are keen to expose and "pickpocket" the personal privacy of celebrities. This kind of rice circle chaos has also shifted to other public figure groups such as sports circles and host circles. As long as a person becomes popular, it seems that it is difficult to escape the situation of being "exposed". It is undoubtedly undesirable to overexpose the personal privacy of celebrities and hosts, and to chase stars in a pathological manner. Although celebrities and hosts are public figures, their personal behavior and personal information, as long as they do not involve violations of laws and regulations, should be protected by law like ordinary people. Behind the exposure of celebrities' personal privacy, there are some irrational behaviors of "fans", and there may also be a gray industrial chain that plays a role in promoting. On the one hand, this so-called star-chasing behavior is not conducive to guiding positive, healthy and benign values on the Internet and among young people, and "human flesh" and exposing the personal privacy of others will also touch the bottom line of laws and regulations. Deliberately exposing someone else's privacy is an immoral act in itself. Netizens and fans chasing stars should also maintain rationality and respect, do not only pay attention to the "collapse" of stars, but also regulate their own star-chasing behavior.
