After the police arrested the website administration
A college student whose face and personal information were revealed was found dead on a ‘digital prison’ website that randomly divulges personal information about sex offenders. The student has sued the digital prison operators to the police and complained of resentment with the university community since his identity was revealed.
The Seoul Suseo Police Department said on the 5th that a Korean University student, A (20), was found dead in his home on the morning of the 3rd. A police officer said: “As a result of the autopsy of the Mr. A, there were no criminal charges, so it is presumed that you made an extreme decision. “
In July, the digital prison released personal information such as Mr. A’s photo and name, school, student number, and phone number, saying that Mr. A asked someone to match the photograph of his acquaintance with pornography. After a while, they also revealed the content of the Telegram messenger that Mr. A had exchanged with someone and a voice recording file.
Mr. A posted a post to the Korea University community in July clarifying, “I have never exchanged the message and the recorded voice is not me.” In this article, Mr. A said: “I received a text message saying that I was subscribed to a site that I did not know, I clicked on the Internet address (URL) and, at the same time, I loaned a cell phone to someone I didn’t know. At the time, my cell phone number appeared to have been hacked. “The digital prison has kept Mr. A’s identity public with clarifications.
The Daegu Provincial Police Agency, which has been conducting digital investigations related to the prison since July, is currently in the state of specifying the management team and arresting the suspect. A police officer said: “Disclosure of personal information in digital prisons may be subject to defamation under the Information and Communication Networks Act, regardless of whether the related content is true or not, and is subject to punishment in itself”.
An anonymous website was opened in June this year with a server abroad, saying that the punishment of the judiciary for violent crimes is generous and will carry out a “social trial”. Personal information from criminals and socially controversial cases like Son Jung-woo, the operator of the child sexual exploitation site, is randomly collected and disclosed. Approximately 150 people (from 6 days) have their personal information disclosed on this site.
