Abstract

With the development of network technology in modern society, self-media applications are becoming more and more extensive, and self-media platforms are also emerging. Due to the lack of corresponding regulation and supervision, everyone's privacy has been violated to a certain extent. In this respect, public figures are under greater pressure. As public figures, they will inevitably expose some private information more or less. Some self-media people even dig deep into the personal privacy of some public figures by hook or by crook and make it public. However, the information disclosed by public figures should be limited to the information related to work, and other private privacy rights should also be protected by privacy rights. Moreover, due to the particularity of public figures, the protection of their privacy rights is mainly provided by a more perfect civil law system.
