The harm of "human flesh unboxing" is not only reflected at the individual level, but also at the social level. This behavior reflects several problems:
Lack of ethics and laws on the Internet。The Internet is a virtual space, but it is also a real society. Behavior on the network must not only abide by the rules of the network, but also abide by the rules of society. The rights on the Internet should not only be enjoyed, but also respected.
Speech on the Internet should not only be free, but also responsible. Behavior on the Internet should not only be legal, but also reasonable. People on the Internet must not only have technology, but also morality. To a large extent, the occurrence of online violence is due to the fact that some people lack awareness of online ethics and law, abuse online technology, satisfy their own selfish desires and bad tastes, disregard the feelings and rights and interests of others, and do not respect the online order and the rule of law in society.
Lack of online regulation and education。The web is an open platform and a complex system. Information on the Internet must not only be disseminated, but also filtered. Users on the network should not only be used, but also managed. Problems on the network must not only be discovered, but also solved. The occurrence of online violence is also related to the lack of online supervision and education.
On the one hand, the intensity and effectiveness of network supervision need to be improvedThe responsibilities and obligations of online platforms need to be clarified, the technology and means of network security need to be improved, and the investigation and punishment of online violations need to be strengthened.
On the other hand, the coverage and depth of online education need to be expandedThe popularization and improvement of network literacy needs to be accelerated, the advocacy and cultivation of network civilization need to be strengthened, and the construction and maintenance of network ethics need to be strengthened.
In the face of the serious social problem of online violence, we cannot sit idly by, nor can we do nothing。We need to take effective measures from multiple angles and levels to jointly build a safe, civilized and harmonious cyber environment.
Specifically, we can start with the following aspects:
Strengthen the protection of personal information. Personal information is an important privacy and an important right for everyone. We will raise our awareness and ability to protect personal information, and will not disclose our own or others' personal information at will.
Strengthen the construction of cyber ethics and laws. The Internet is a virtual space, but it is also a real society. Behavior on the network must not only abide by the rules of the network, but also abide by the rules of society. The rights on the Internet should not only be enjoyed, but also respected. Speech on the Internet should not only be free, but also responsible. Behavior on the Internet should not only be legal, but also reasonable. People on the Internet must not only have technology, but also morality.
Lack of ethics and laws on the InternetThe Internet is a virtual space, but it is also a real society. Behavior on the Internet must not only comply with the rules of the network, but also abide by the rules of society, especially the rules of law.
Behavior on the Internet will also have an impact on Internet users and society, and even cause irreversible consequences。Therefore, network users should have a sense of cyber ethics and law, respect the rights and privacy of others, do not abuse cyber technology, and do not engage in cyber violence and cybercrime.
Lack of online regulation and educationThe web is an open platform and a complex system. Information and behavior on the network need to be effectively supervised and educated to ensure the safety and health of the network.
Network regulatory departments should strengthen network management and oversight, promptly discover and address illegal and negative online conduct, and preserve network order and the public interest. The network education department should strengthen the education and guidance of the networkImprove the quality and ability of network users, and cultivate the responsibility and public morality of network users.
"Human flesh unboxing" is a serious act of online violence, which brings great harm and impact to the victim and society。We should severely condemn and crack down on such behaviors, and at the same time, we should carry out effective prevention and governance at the individual, social and legal levels, so as to protect the privacy and rights of individuals, maintain the security and health of the network, and promote the development and progress of the network.
