"The woman was derailed by the courier brother" and finally filed a case a few months later! The cover news noted that Yuhang People's Court posted a message on WeChat. On June 65438+February 65438+April, Yuhang Court filed a case to accept Gu Moumou (pseudonym Ms. Wu) v. Lang Moumou and He Moumou. From being photographed secretly to being dismissed by her former unit, and then being rejected for a job, Ms. Wu of Hangzhou is experiencing a living "social death" in recent months. In addition, the previous "Sister Tsinghua Incident" and "Chengdu Girls Encountered Cyber Violence after Diagnosis" both showed the consequences of personal "social death" after information exposure. So what should ordinary people do after "social death"?
Netizen comments support Ms. Wu's legal rights protection.
What is "social death"
Social death is a popular hot word on the Internet in recent months. It mostly means to make a fool of yourself in front of the public. It's so embarrassing that people just want to open a crack in the ground and go in. It is called "social death", which is similar to another online language "public punishment".
This word comes from Thomas Lynch's Funeral Notes, which describes the types of death and is taken from the original text: Death has multiple meanings. What is measured by stethoscope and EEG is called "physical death"; Activities based on nerve endings and molecules are called "metabolic death"; Finally, the death known to relatives, friends and neighbors is "social death". It is also close to the definition used as a network language today.
The word "social death" really entered the public eye, in fact, in the last three months, which was attributed to three hot events: the "Luo Zhuangyuan Incident" on August 29th; 65438+ 10 month 13 "A gift event"; 165438+1October 17 "Tsinghua Senior Incident".
Among them, "a gift event" is nothing more than embarrassment caused by spoof, while the other two events are completely different in nature.
In the "Senior Incident in Tsinghua", a girl from Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts claimed in the WeChat circle of friends and groups that she was sexually harassed by a junior in the school cafeteria. The next day, after the school security department took surveillance, she admitted that "only a black thing was brushed, but it seems that it was not a hand at present", and apologized for publishing the personal information of the boys involved without verification and infringing on their reputation.
"Sister Tsinghua Incident"
The serious consequences caused by "social death" are essentially a kind of cyber violence and a private law enforcement act. Wang Sixin, deputy dean of the Institute of Human Destiny, Communication University of China, believes that the evaluation of the popularity of cyberspace has caused fatal harm to the parties concerned, resulting in undue discrimination in their future lives and loss of a large number of normal life opportunities.
Ms. Wu was sent a screenshot of the video.
Therefore, in order to avoid the phenomenon of "social death" frequently happening to every ordinary person, social people have to have laws to protect their rights after encountering such violations. 202 1 year1the Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC), which came into effect on October 65, clearly stipulates that "no organization or individual may infringe upon the reputation right of others by insulting or slandering" and "any organization or individual who needs to obtain other people's personal information shall obtain and ensure the information security according to law, and shall not illegally collect, use, process or transmit other people's personal information. This will provide solid legal support for stopping "social death".

Smooth channels for safeguarding rights and make good use of legal weapons.
In fact, cyber violence has emerged in an endless stream over the years. Recently, the incident of "Chengdu girl encountering cyber violence after diagnosis" once caused concern among netizens. Many people think that the virus is not terrible, what is terrible is the social death caused by online rumors. Later, officials punished those who spread rumors. At the same time, Sichuan Province issued a notice in emergency headquarters to deal with the novel coronavirus epidemic, saying that during the epidemic prevention and control period, Sichuan will further strengthen the protection of citizens' personal information and privacy rights, and further strengthen management through official means to avoid such incidents.
In fact, as early as 20 19 12, the National Network Information Office issued the Regulations on Ecological Governance of Network Information Content. According to the regulations, users, producers and platforms of online information content services are not allowed to commit illegal acts such as cyber violence, human flesh search, deep forgery, traffic fraud and account manipulation. So, how can we control cyber violence more effectively, especially the variant behavior behind it?
Meng Qiang, director of the Civil Code Research Center of Beijing Institute of Technology Law School, believes that the key is to fully protect everyone's personality rights by using the Civil Code, the future personal information protection law and related laws and regulations. Network service providers should fulfill their corresponding obligations. Victims should also have a sense of rights protection. Once you find that your rights have been infringed, you should inform the network service provider in time and take necessary measures to eliminate the influence and avoid the damage from expanding. If the consequences of personal injury are serious, then we must bravely go to court to prosecute and earnestly safeguard our rights.
As far as Ms. Wu in Hangzhou is concerned, she insists on litigation to safeguard her rights and interests, and to some extent, she is also setting a legal example. Her "uncompromising" attitude towards online rumors should also be the attitude of our whole society. At any time, the bill of "social death" should not be paid by the victim, otherwise it is connivance to the rumor maker.
