Two airline customer service companies were sentenced to three years for selling star flight information. Is it illegal for fans to buy star flight information?

In today's information age, while citizens' personal information is easy to save and query, the risk of information leakage is increasing, and the state pays more and more attention to the protection of citizens' personal information. In order to get idolatry, many fans often use improper methods to collect personal information of their idols. Beijing accepted a criminal case in which fans illegally bought star flight information from airline staff in order to get the itinerary of their idols. This incident has punished the airline staff and given the staff three years of criminal responsibility. Should fans who buy information be criminally punished?

First of all, according to China's laws, fans who illegally purchase or obtain personal privacy information of idols without their permission are also subject to criminal punishment. This is an invasion of personal privacy and an illegal act. At the same time, in the information age, the personal information of stars not only belongs to personal privacy, but also has certain commercial value. Personal information is illegally handed over and exchanged in the form of money without the knowledge of the parties concerned, which infringes on the privacy of stars and easily causes property losses. Therefore, fans who illegally buy star information will generally be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment and fined. After all, although stars are public figures, they are ordinary people off stage and outside work. You don't have to show any side of yourself to fans or audiences all the time. You have your own private space. If your private space or personal information is leaked, you have the right to protect yourself by law.

In fact, this phenomenon is still very common in society. After personal information is illegally leaked or bought and sold, some stars often choose to keep things quiet because of personal settings or fan economy considerations. But it also tells us that we should maintain professional ethics and fulfill the corresponding confidentiality obligations for the work that can contact stars. Understand the laws and regulations, understand that illegal disclosure of other people's personal information is not only an infringement, but also a serious punishment.

Anyone who purchases other people's information through illegal channels is also suspected of infringing on the privacy of others and is also subject to criminal punishment. Therefore, although we like a person again, we should also grasp the discretion, grasp the distance, and don't go beyond the legal boundaries, otherwise it will bring serious consequences to ourselves.
