On Legal Reflection and System Improvement of Public Interest Litigation on Personal Information Protection
In the era of big data,the value of personal information becomes more and more abundant,which causes the leak and misuse of personal information.But,when citizens'information rights and in-terests are infringed,they have so limited relief ability that cannot contend with the infringing subjects.The Personal Information Protection Law,article 70,introduces the public interest lawsuit into the protec-tion of personal information,which to some extent makes up for the deficiencies of the personal informa-tion protection system.However,the provision of this article is too principled,which leads to some prob-lems in the practical application,such as the general generalization of the prosecution conditions,the un-clear rules of the main body of the prosecution,and the confusion of the application of compensation lia-bility.To make it possible for the public interest lawsuit system to play its role in dealing with large-scale processing of personal information and protecting the public interests of the society,it is necessary to specify the applied conditions for public-interest litigation case of personal information,clarify the rules for the subject of litigation,actively amend the applicable rules for the compensation liability of public in-terest litigation for information,and ultimately promote the effective implementation of the personal infor-mation protection public interest litigation system.
