Abstract: With the rapid progress of the internet and the increasingly vibrant online discourse, cyberspace has gradually evolved into the main arena for the public to express opinions and exchange thoughts. However, the free nature, anonymity, and rapid dissemination speed of online speech have also given rise to a series of issues concerning the infringement of personality rights, and such incidents are becoming increasingly severe. Ensuring that citizens' personality rights are not violated by online speech has become a significant legal challenge that society urgently needs to confront. This article provides an overview of online speech and personality rights, analyzing the current legal status of regulations concerning online speech that infringes upon personality rights. It also offers suggestions for optimizing these legal regulations to enhance public legal awareness and implement additional measures aimed at more effectively protecting citizens' personality rights.
