❏ [Domestic] Freedom of Expression

Limiting Information Intermediary Liability

Feb. 7 – Critical statement on the bill to amend the Game Industry Promotion Act proposed by Rep. Lee Sang-heon: Published a critique stating that provisions regulating game advertisements for youth protection and provisions allowing the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism to order site operators to delete or block games or advertisements that violate game laws when distributed online have significant constitutional issues and require reconsideration.

Feb. 21 – Opposing the Child and Youth Sexual Protection Act amendment: Called for withdrawal of the amendment requiring internet companies to immediately report to investigative authorities upon discovering sexual grooming of children and youth on their services, with penalties for non-compliance. The critique argued this amendment would force information intermediaries to constantly monitor and censor information on their services, violating freedom of expression, discouraging voluntary monitoring (thus making child protection less effective), and imposing reporting obligations that violate their conscience.

May. 4 – Submitted opposition to the Portal News Service Restriction Law: Submitted opposition to the National Assembly regarding the Information and Communications Network Act amendment (proposed by Rep. Kim Eui-gyeom, Bill No. 2115419) which prohibits Internet portal services from arranging and recommending news independently and deprives portals of the right to select information or entities to distribute within news services.

May. 11 – Submitted opposition to the Online Community Closure Law: Submitted opposition to the National Assembly regarding the Information and Communications Network Act amendment that requires suspension of websites reported for rights violations. The opposition argued this amendment is unconstitutional, violating the principles of clarity and proportionality by requiring information intermediaries to examine and censor all posts continuously circulated within communities and suspend operations based merely on reports of rights violations.

Aug. 29 – Statement announcing the provision of ‘Information Intermediary Post Management Guidelines’ for website operators: Distributed guidelines to help information intermediaries who wish to minimize damage from illegal information while providing users with communication spaces free from constant monitoring, intervention, and arbitrary censorship.

Oct. 20 – Statement welcoming the Spanish Supreme Court’s order to Unblock Women on Web: The Spanish Supreme Court ordered the lifting of the Spanish Medicines and Health Products Authority’s unilateral directive to block Women on Web, a website providing information on sexual and reproductive rights to women, without prior court order. The Spanish Supreme Court’s ruling is very significant as it provides an important judicial precedent that considers both the right to information on the internet, including women’s sexual and reproductive rights, and political activities to secure these rights as freedom of expression.

May. 10 – Statement Condemning Seoul Metro’s civil lawsuit and criminal complaint against the Solidarity Against Disability Discrimination: Published a critique condemning Seoul Metro’s suppression of freedom of assembly and demonstration for people with disabilities, and urged the public institution to fulfill its responsibilities by stopping unfair media and legal responses against activists from the Solidarity Against Disability Discrimination and promising to guarantee mobility rights for people with disabilities.

Released a commentary criticizing the verdict as revealing the excessiveness and unconstitutionality of ‘criminal defamation for stating facts’ and as a ruling that seriously regresses freedom of expression by criminalizing all activities that expose others’ misconduct, and urged the National Assembly to promptly abolish or amend criminal defamation for stating facts.

Jul. 14 – Statement urging prompt passage of bills to amend and abolish criminal defamation for stating facts and insult laws: According to the status of defamation and insult case processing, defamation and insult complaints and accusations have quadrupled over 10 years to 80,000 annually.

Government Censorship and Administrative Measures

Jan. 7 – Opposition to the Public Official Election Act amendment bill proposed by Rep. Joo Ho-young defining fake news: Submitted opposition to the Public Official Election Act amendment bill proposed by Rep. Joo Ho-young, which aimed to protect citizens from fake news and ensure fair elections, arguing that it contains unconstitutional provisions that violate the constitutional principles of clarity and prohibition of excessive restrictions.

Feb. 15 – Critical statement on Rep. Bae Hyun-jin’s ‘deepfake’ regulation bill: Published a statement criticizing a bill that designates information created using artificial intelligence technology as illegal information under the Information and Communications Network Act, making it subject to regulation by the Korea Communications Standards Commission and imposing criminal penalties, stating that it violates international human rights standards by regulating and criminally punishing expressions that have no clear and present harm.

May. 3 – Condemning statement on Information and Communications Network Act amendments proposed by Rep. Kim Eui-kyeom and Kim Jong-min: The Democratic Party officially proposed amendments to the Information and Communications Network Act – one by Representative Kim Jong-min that establishes grounds for regulating false information, requires temporary measures for expressions critical of others, mandates posting of fact-checking and rebuttal content, and gives binding power to the decisions of the Online Dispute Resolution Committee; and another by Representative Kim Eui-kyeom that prohibits portals from arranging and recommending news independently and deprives portals of the authority to select information or entities to be distributed within news services. Open Net, together with civil society organizations, published a commentary pointing out that these bills are unconstitutional as they undermine citizens’ freedom of expression and right to know, with high potential for political abuse.

Jul. 8 – Statement welcoming the Constitutional Court’s decision of nonconformity to the Constitution regarding the telecommunications data provision system: The Constitutional Court ruled that the Telecommunications Business Act violates the right of personal information self determination by not including procedures for post-notification about the acquisition of telecommunications data, thus violating the principle of due process. The decision is welcomed as privacy is a fundamental right where procedural protection is as important as substantive protection, improving the transparency of state surveillance. However, it is regrettable that the Court stated that the principle of warrant does not apply because the investigative authorities’ acquisition of telecommunications data under this system is not compulsory.

Jul. 26 – Published a critical statement on the sharp increase in the number of deletion orders for internet posts by the National Election Commission.

Aug. 25 – Critical statement on the “Conversation Recording Prohibition Act”: Open Net published a commentary urging the withdrawal of the proposed amendment to the Protection of Communications Secrets Act, expressing concern that it would severely restrict various social reporting and media activities, make it difficult to prove the truth, and function as a law that allows improper conduct and false defenses to prevail.

Oct. 15 – Submitted opposition to the Conversation Recording Prohibition Act: “The Conversation Recording Prohibition Act” imposes imprisonment of up to one year or a fine of up to 3 million won for recording conversations without the consent of all participants, even for parties to the conversation. This law is likely to violate the constitutional principles of clarity in criminal law, proportionality, and prohibition of excessive restrictions, infringing on the general freedom of action, freedom of speech and expression, and the right to know, while significantly harming the public interest.

Sept. 15 – Submission of an amicus brief on the National Security Act Article 7 constitutional complaint with Article19: Submitted a third-party opinion (amicus brief) to the Constitutional Court stating that Article 7 of the National Security Act excessively restricts and infringes upon citizens’ freedom of expression.

Oct. 25 – Filed a petition through the online National People’s Petition: After the press conference on October 17, Gender Equality Jeonju officially posted an apology, but it only apologized for procedural inadequacies.

Nov. 2 – Planning to submit a discrimination complaint to the National Human Rights Commission: Jeonju City responded to the petition, but the response was not significantly different from that of Gender Equality Jeonju. Hence, a discrimination complaint to the National Human Rights Commission is being prepared.

Oct. 4 – Submission of opposition to the “Cyberbullying Information Shutdown Act”: Submitted opposition to the so-called ‘Cyberbullying Information Shutdown Act’ (Information and Communications Network Act amendment), which excessively infringes on freedom of expression by defining regulated expressions based on overly abstract and subjective concepts such as psychological attacks and causing distress to others.
