摘要

The Internet has fundamentally changed our way of life, both private and business, as well as our behavior in human interaction. The development trend of Internet applications and e-business is quite irreversible as we continue to enjoy the benefits derived therefrom. In parallel to the technological development, the Information Age also gives rise to new criminality as it aggregates old criminal problems. Computers connected to the Internet facilitate traditional criminality and bring new kinds of illegality. Given the trans-border and evolving nature of computer crime, it is an issue of international concern. With the goals of restructuring the economy to one that is knowledge-based, and fostering a secure environment conducive to this economic growth, the Hong Kong government needs to be concerned about the propensity for social deviance in cyberspace, computer and information ethics, and threats to electronic commerce in formulating the control policies in computer crime. Inter-departmental efforts were organized to have a focused review on related legislation and administrative measures. The government adopted the proposed framework for improving the existing regime in July 2001. Thereafter, some actions have been observed, but the progress is relatively slow. The Hong Kong government has been in a passive mode in addressing computer crime issues and the subsequent social impacts. The legislation is found inadequate and outdated in bringing a deterrence effect to computer criminals. The mass public, by and large, still lacks awareness in computer security or information ethics. Most initiatives in computer crime prevention are driven by the private sector, particularly the IT and banking/finance industries. Even so, the activities and solutions are so piecemeal that the efforts can hardly be significant or persistent. While both Internet and computer crime are evolving fast, the government policy is unable to keep with the pace.
