The Judicial Application of Crimes of Helping Information Network Criminal Activities

With the in-depth development and extensive application of information technology, the use of information network crime is increasingly rampant, and the fundamental purpose of this is to regulate the helping behavior in network crime. In judicial practice, the application of this crime shows a trend of rapid expansion, but at the same time, there are also some difficulties and disputes, which are mainly reflected in the subjectivity of the identification of “knowing” in the constitutive elements, and the ambiguity of the definition of “helping behavior” and “serious circumstances.” Based on this, people should clarify the connotation of the constituent elements of the crime, and unify the identification standards of the crime, to achieve accurate application in judicial practice for better governance of network crime.
