Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The International Education College of Jiangxi Normal University's research on "protection of privacy rights in public spaces" cannot be divorced from the spatial context and examined in "privacy rights". With the advent of the digital age, public space is no longer just a concept of physical space, but deeply integrated with digital technology, forming an integrated unity of physical and virtual spaces. The widespread coverage of public digital devices is impacting the traditional privacy protection system, and the demand for protecting individual privacy rights in public spaces is becoming increasingly prominent. This study systematically analyzes the historical evolution of privacy rights and the digitalization of public spaces from the perspective of digital public spaces. Through classic cases, it reveals three core dilemmas in privacy protection within China's digital public spaces. Based on this, this paper proposes pathways for implementing privacy protection in digital public spaces, examining legislative, judicial, and social governance perspectives.
