Abstract
The article analyzes the legal regulation of the private life of citizens, which is becoming increasingly open due to the expansion of modern Internet resources. The relevance of this issue both in the Republic of Kazakhstan and in Russia is confirmed by the growing volume of litigation on the topic of our research. The main goal of our research is to reveal fundamental human rights and freedoms related to information related to private life with the expansion of digital technologies and, in particular, the Internet. The authors made an attempt to correlate the right to freedom of information and the right to ensure privacy on the Internet. The results obtained by the authors may be useful in solving problems of qualifying acts related to violation of the right to privacy if there is a conflict with the right to receive information. The authors used a wide variety of research methods, the main one of which was the comparative legal method, which was used both when comparing the institutions of the right to privacy and the right to information. At the end of this study, the authors came to the conclusion that both the right to privacy and the right to information on the Internet are implemented exclusively within the framework of the law and with mandatory consideration of the consequences of violating such rights.
