In principle, criminal suspects and defendants who are exposed by the news before being sentenced by the court should be mosaic. Because no one can be found guilty without a court decision.

Looking at today’s statement, we can summarize the rule. If the suspect is found guilty in the end, he will not be coded, and if the suspect is proven innocent in the end, he will be marked as a mosaic.

In principle, criminals who have been tried by the court should not be coded when they are exposed in the news, unless otherwise provided by law.

Our country implements the principle of open trials, but cases involving state secrets, commercial secrets, minors, and some personal privacy cases may not be tried in public. Therefore, as long as the above are not involved, they should be made public.

Article 58 of the "Law on the Protection of Minors" clearly stipulates: In cases where a minor commits a crime, news reports, public publications on film and television programs, the Internet, etc. shall not disclose the minor's name, name, etc. Residence, photographs, images, and information from which the minor may be inferred.

The purpose of cases that infringe on personal privacy, such as rape cases, is to protect the reputation of the victim or other people and prevent adverse effects on society.

Therefore, if it is a criminal, as long as it is not a minor crime, there should be no mosaic in news reports.

Extended information:

Personal privacy is protected by law. The act of intruding into other people's private lives and disclosing other people's privacy is both a violation of social morality and an illegal act.

Surveillance and peeking into other people's private lives, and doing everything possible to find out about other people's secrets by peeking into diaries, opening letters privately, etc., are all violations of privacy rights. Of course, for the benefit of the public, law enforcement agencies investigating and disclosing relevant information of the parties in accordance with the law do not constitute infringements.

Respecting the privacy of others requires establishing privacy awareness. Make it clear that everyone is an independent individual, and break the old concept of "father is the guide for the son, and the husband is the guide for the wife" in traditional Chinese culture that promotes personality dependence; do not interfere with other people's private space, do not gossip, expose other people's shortcomings, or disturb others' peace ; Don’t be keen to inquire about other people’s private affairs and spread other people’s secrets out of curiosity. We need to correct some bad habits of not respecting other people's privacy.
