With the advent of internet and digital communication technology, online crimes targeting celebrities have gained a momentum. This article argues that, among the celebrities, actresses of Hollywood and Bollywood are particularly targeted online mainly because of their sex appeal and easy availability of contents including their images, video clippings, their private geo-location information, etc. The perpetrators are mostly fans who may wish to view the actresses as sex symbols. This article suggests that production houses should take primary responsibilities to prevent such victimisation and the actors themselves may avail legal policies such as right to be forgotten to approach the internet companies including search engines like Google to prevent victimisation and remove the offensive contents.

A tremendous growth in the use of the Internet has been observed in the past two decades. More than 75% of Americans participate in online activities (University of Southern California Annenberg School Center for the Digital Future, 2004) such as e-mail, Web browsing, working from home, accessing news stories, seeking information, instant messaging, using the Internet in lieu of the library for school work, playing games, and managing personal finance. For professionals, the Internet is an important medium for networking and building social capital. However, along with all positive impacts, there are also negative outcomes. One such negative outcome includes Internet crimes. Dowland, Furnell, Illingworth, and Reynolds (1999) state that “with society’s widespread use of and, in some cases, reliance upon technology, significant opportunities now exist for both mischievous and malicious abuse via IT systems” (p. 715). Internet crimes (cyber crimes) consist of specific crimes dealing with computers and networks (such as hacking, spreading of viruses, and worms) and the facilitation of traditional crime through the use of computers on the Internet (such as child pornography, hate crimes, telemarketing/Internet fraud). This article focuses on Internet crimes, especially those affecting individual users, and offers a discussion of issues regarding Internet crimes and gender.

O objetivo primordial do presente trabalho é analisar o avanço da legislação brasileira, especialmente as leis 12.737/2012 (Lei Carolina Dieckmann) e 12.965/2014 (lei do Marco Civil da Internet), em diz respeito às inovações nas abordagens quanto aos crimes nos ciberespaços (cibercrimes). Posteriormente, far-se-á uma análise dentro do direito internacional, bem como da Convenção de Budapeste que visa solucionar as questões quanto ao mau uso da internet. Justifica-se o presente estudo através do avanço tecnológico do mundo moderno, que por sua vez contribuiu para a criação de novéis hábitos nas “novíssimas” formas de comunicação, que passaram a se valer de meios inovadores capazes de promover diálogo com as pessoas em tempo real e em qualquer lugar do mundo. Entretanto, não só no Brasil, mas emtodos os países em geral o mau uso da internet tem gerado muitos confrontos que ultrapassam as barreiras fronteiriças, como a prática de atos que violam direitos da personalidade, direito de propriedade intelectual e outros delitos criminais. Desta feita, os problemas que envolvem a internet, geralmente, têm suas repercussões extrapolando a legislação interna de cada Estado, que muitas vezes é insuficiente para resolver tal questão. Acredita-se ser, não só oportuna, mas necessária a utilização do Direito Internacional como opção catalisadora para o combate aos males que envolvem a rede mundial dos computadores. Para isso, será utilizada uma metodologia de pesquisa baseada em estudo bibliográfico de natureza qualitativa, pura em relação ao seu resultado, e descritivo-exploratória quanto aos seus objetivos. Palavras-chave: Direito Internacional. Internet. Cibercrimes.     Abstract: The main objective of this work is to analyze the progress of Brazilian legislation, especially laws 12,737 / 2012 (Carolina Dieckmann Law) and 12,965 / 2014 (Internet Civil Law Law), regarding innovations in approaches to cyber crimes (cybercrimes). Subsequently, an analysis will be made under international law, as well as the Budapest Convention, which will address the issues of misuse of the internet. The present study is justified by the technological advance of the modern world, which in turn has contributed to the creation of new habits in the "newest" forms of communication, which have come to use innovative means capable of promoting dialogue with people in time real and anywhere in the world. However, not only in Brazil, but in all countries in general, the misuse of the Internet has generated many confrontations that go beyond border barriers, such as the practice of acts that violate personality rights, intellectual property rights and other criminal offenses. This time around, the problems involving the Internet generally have their repercussions, extrapolating the internal legislation of each State, which is often insufficient to resolve this issue. It is believed to be not only timely but necessary to use International Law as a catalyst for combating the evils that surround the global computer network. For this, a research methodology based on a bibliographic study of a qualitative nature, pure in relation to its result, and descriptive-exploratory in terms of its objectives will be used. Keywords: International Law. Internet. Cybercrime.
