Employee jailed for stealing bitcoin
According to the news on February 10, 2018, on September 4, 2017, seven ministries and commissions of the people's Republic of China issued the notice on preventing the financing risk of token issuance, which regulates the issuance of tokens. In the notice, the nature of all kinds of tokens and "virtual currency" is clearly defined: it is not issued by the monetary authority, and it has no monetary attributes such as legal compensation and mandatory, It does not have the same legal status as currency and cannot and should not be used as currency in the market. Nevertheless, it is undeniable that all kinds of "virtual currency" still have a certain property value and are part of the property of the holder. So, how to identify the nature of the theft of such tokens
In order to protect the legitimate rights and interests of "virtual token" holders, the author intends to discuss such issues through a relevant news report and relevant casesstealing bitcoin
recently, a news report said that Haidian police in Beijing cracked a case of destroying computer information system. The suspect Zhong used his administrator's authority to modify the company's computer applications and steal 100 bitcoins. Before he could sell the stolen money, Zhong was arrested by the police. At present, Zhong was detained for the crime of destroying computer information system
it can be seen from the report that the police detained the perpetrator for stealing bitcoin on suspicion of damaging the computer information system. The crime of destroying the computer information system stipulated in Article 286 of the criminal law of our country refers to the act of deleting, modifying, adding or interfering with the functions of the computer information system in violation of the provisions of the state, resulting in the abnormal operation of the computer information system and serious consequences, or deleting, modifying or interfering with the data and application programs stored, processed or transmitted in the computer information system Modifying or adding operations with serious consequences, or deliberately making or spreading destructive programs such as computer viruses, which affect the normal operation of the computer system with serious consequences
In the author's opinion, this crime is one of the crimes of impairing social management order in Chapter 6 of the criminal law, that is, the legal interest protected by this crime is actually the public order of our society, not the property interests of the digital currency holders, which in fact denies the property value of digital currency, It is only protected as a data or system function in a computer system. The author thinks that there is some irrationality in this wayfirst of all, in the notice on the prevention of bitcoin risk issued in 2013, it is mentioned that bitcoin is not a real currency because it is not issued by the monetary authority and does not have such monetary attributes as legal compensation and compulsion. Bitcoin has four main characteristics: no centralized issuers, limited amount, no geographical restrictions and anonymity. Because it belongs to a specific virtual commodity in nature The notice also clearly mentioned that bitcoin does not have the same legal status as currency and should not be used as currency in the market. However, as a virtual commodity, the property value behind bitcoin cannot be ignored
Secondly, Article 127 of the general provisions of the civil law, which came into effect on October 1 last year, stipulates that if the law has provisions on the protection of data and network virtual property, such provisions shall prevail. Although only the protection of the network virtual property has made the principle provisions, but it can not be denied that this shows our country's attitude towards the protection of the network virtual property. Although there is no special law for the protection of data and network virtual property in China, from the perspective of the general provisions of civil law, it is predicted that there will be relevant legislation in the futurefinally, from the relevant cases, we can also see the recognition of the property attribute of virtual currency such as bitcoin in China's judicial practice. In April and may 2013, Liu premeditated to set up a bitcoin trading platform, so he recruited Jin and Huang (both sentenced) to jointly set up a "bitcoin" trading platform. During this period, Liu, Huang, Jin, Jin and the defendant he, in addition to other acts of directly stealing customers' funds, also frequently cashed RMB by selling customers' bitcoins, and transferred 120 bitcoins from the website. Finally, the court convicted and punished the defendant for fraud, and the bitcoin transferred by the defendant was also included in the property loss of the victim. Therefore, from the judicial cases, we can also get the recognition of the property attributes of virtual currency such as bitcoin
based on the above reasons, the author thinks that it may be unreasonable to regulate the theft of virtual currency only as the crime of damaging computer information system. We should face up to the hidden property value and consider the application of the crime of infringing property in China's criminal law. Only in this way can we effectively protect the legitimate rights and property of digital currency holders in China
learned from the Xi'an Municipal Public Security Bureau's opening branch recently that the "3. 30" network hacker theft virtual currency case was broken down nearly half a year, and 3 suspect suspects were all arrested. The initial investigation found that the gang involved in the case reached 600 million yuan. p>
on March 30, 2018, the economic development branch of Xi'an Public Security Bureau received an alarm from the victim Zhang, claiming that his personal computer was suspected to have been illegally intruded, and a large number of virtual currencies such as bitcoin and Ethereum were looted, with a market value of over 100 million yuan. The Municipal Public Security Bureau quickly set up a special group to carry out the detection work
has been examined by the 3 suspects as hacker. Many illegal gains have been obtained through illegal invasion, control of company's enterprise and personal network system, and the amount of suspect involved has reached 600 million yuan. At present, the case is still under further investigation
March 25 (Xinhua) Zhong, an employee of an Internet technology company in Haidian District of Beijing, took advantage of his position to steal 100 bitcoins from the company by inserting codes with the permission of the administrator to modify the application program in the company's server. Reporters learned from the 24 people's Procuratorate of Haidian District, Beijing, that the procuratorial organ approved the arrest of the suspect according to the law on suspicion of illegally obtaining the data of computer information system. P>
the prosecutor of the case, Ji Jingling, said that according to the criminal law of the People's Republic of China and the relevant laws and regulations, the suspect, Zhong Mou, violated the state regulations and used technical means to acquire data stored in the computer information system. His behavior had violated the criminal law and was suspected of illegally obtaining data from computer information system. The procuratorial organ has approved the arrest of the suspect Zhong Mou according to law. p>
from the point of view of the crime of illegally obtaining computer information system data, bitcoin, as a virtual property, does not belong to other property stipulated in Article 92 of the criminal law, and is not the "property" protected by theft. In my opinion, this conclusion does not pay attention to the value attribute of virtual property, and can not adapt to the development of information network era
first, although Article 92 of the criminal law stipulates the crime of property, it does not specify the existing forms and types of property, let alone the tangible and intangible of property. On the contrary, the provision of "other property" provides space for interpretation of bitcoin, an intangible property
Second, article 265 of the criminal law stipulates that anyone who, for the purpose of making profits, stealthily connects another person's communication lines, copies another person's telecommunication codes or signals, or knowingly uses the stealthily connected or copied telecommunication equipment or facilities shall be convicted and punished for the crime of theft. The Supreme People's court and the Supreme People's Procuratorate clearly take electric power, gas, tap water and other properties as the objects of theft in the interpretation on Several Issues concerning the application of law in handling criminal cases of theft. In this case, the object of protection of larceny is not limited to tangible objects, but can contain intangible objects, even property interests
thirdly, although virtual property is attached to cyberspace, it has certain conversion methods and transaction rules with real property. Therefore, the virtual form does not mean the virtual value. On the contrary, it represents the real property of the obligee. In addition, the protection of legal interest of theft is the ownership of property or the actual possession of property. Because the carrier of bitcoin is data, the obligee can control, possess and dispose of bitcoin according to certain operation mode
fourthly, bitcoin is interpreted as property, not by analogy. The difference between analogical interpretation and extended interpretation lies in whether it goes beyond the possible scope of literal meaning. With the increasing importance of data, virtual property has been widely known and put into the legal system as a new type of property. As a typical representative of virtual property, bitcoin is used as a token, which is far from the game virtual currency. Even if bitcoin is interpreted as property, it does not exceed the possibility of ordinary people's prediction of "property"
bitcoin, as a virtual property, meets the requirements of "property" in criminal law and has the property nature. Therefore, in the case of bitcoin theft, it is more reasonable to regulate it by theft.
meinian health examination is reliable meinian grand health provides health examination, health management, health consultation and other services, and has outstanding influence in the medical and grand health sector. It has won "China's best corporate citizen, best social feedback Award", "2018 corporate social responsibility Contribution Award" and other honors
There are three differences between meinian physical examination and hospital physical examination:1. Medical examination population is different
1. Hospital: a place where patients gather. It is mainly responsible for the examination and diagnosis and treatment of patients and people suspected of having diseases. When they go to the hospital for physical examination, it is difficult to share the examination instruments and equipment with patients, It is inevitable that there will be a potential threat of cross infection e to disease aggregation
2. Meinian: as a health examination institution, the physical examination crowd is mainly healthy / sub-health, compared with the hospital, the health examination equipment is almost not shared with the patients, and the iatrogenic infection is eliminated
Second, the environment and atmosphere are different.1. Hospitals are built for patients and patients. They are divided according to outpatient service, department and function. During physical examination, they have to go upstairs and downstairs, or even run from one building to another. Nurses are very busy and have no time to guide them. It is too time-consuming for a physical examination
2. Meinian: it is built for the convenience of physical examination customers. It scientifically divides the physical examination areas, implements the separate examination of men and women, implements the efficient one-stop service process, and the design of humanized corridor ensures the smooth passage, and each department and passage has the guidance and diversion of inspection nurses, which greatly saves time and facilitates the physical examination of customers
3. Different service experience
1. Hospital: when you go to the hospital for physical examination, you smell the smell of disinfectant and look at the patients and family members who come and go. Even if you don't get sick, you will feel depressed for a few days when you see the injured people
2. Meinian: it's not because of illness, but to prevent it, nip it in the bud and save the cost of treatment
without comparison, there is no harm. It costs 2000 + to go to the hospital just to have a gastros. However, meinian health has launched a variety of packages with high cost performance, which are definitely the first choice for elderly uncles and aunts
bitcoin, as a special Internet commodity, has its cash value and belongs to other people's legitimate property. If the amount of stolen property is large, it constitutes theft and should be investigated for criminal responsibility
similarly, robbing other people's legitimate property will also constitute a crime of robbery
I hope your question has been solved.
Recently, Haidian police in Beijing cracked a case of destroying computer information system. The suspect Zhong used his administrator's authority to modify the company's computer applications, stealing 100 bitcoins, worth millions of yuan. Before he could sell the stolen goods, Zhong was arrested by the police. At present, Zhong was detained for the crime of destroying computer information system
according to the police, after stealing bitcoin, Zhong originally wanted to go to a foreign website to sell it. Because he didn't know which website could operate, he found an application of "bitcoin wallet" on the Internet and saved the stolen 100 bitcoins. It was said that there was also a "core money package", which could clear the track of stealing, and then moved 10 bitcoins to deposit. After the police work, Zhong returned the remaining 90 bitcoins to the company, but the 10 bitcoins stored in the "core wallet" could not be found
At present, the suspect Zhong has been detained by Haidian police for the crime of destroying computer information system, and the case is under further trialThe theft of 14.5 million bitcoins in Jiangxi Province was solved, which caused heated discussion among netizens on the Internet. We all know that the current era is an Internet era, and it is also an era of rapid development. There are many people who want to earn money through illegal means, which is not worth advocating. We also hope that everyone can learn this lesson, suspects will also face very severe punishment
we also hope that this lesson can arouse a wake-up call for everyone. If everyone is like them, they will certainly face the disaster of imprisonment. At the same time, we need to pay attention to the fact that no matter how powerful the hacking technology is, there will still be many hot spots left. After all, it is the body, which cannot be separated from legal sanctions, I also hope that they can learn from this lesson, be a good person in their future life, and never violate the law and discipline. I hope everyone can pay attention to this
