LEGALIZATION OF INTERNET SPACE AS A METHOD FOR INCREASING THE INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIVE CULTURE OF CITIZENS
The new technological structure of all spheres of public life requires a large-scale reformatting of the organization of power and a qualitatively different legal regulation. The authors of the article substantiate the need for the participation of the state and law in shaping the information culture of users. In particular, the authors ask the extent to which the management and regulation of Internet relations should be carried out, in what ways, means and methods this impact should be implemented in order to improve and increase the level of information and communication culture of network users, rather than force them to anonymize actions in network, "go" to the deep Internet, use hidden networks of the virtual world. To date, the construction of the electronic state, which has enormous potential, has been successfully formed and is functioning in the Russian Internet space. But in the Russian digital environment, the electronic state is modeled on the basis of authoritarian organizational and managerial mechanisms. This, in turn, creates serious organizational and administrative barriers to the development and formation of an information and communication culture. Today it has become apparent that the scale of legal regulation in the social sphere and in the Internet space should be different. Modern legislation already lays down certain prerequisites for regulating Internet communications (digital rights are enshrined, non-jurisdictional processes are introduced, etc.). In order to preserve the value of an individual in the field of Internet communications, to prevent the leveling of human rights and freedoms for the sake of technological effectiveness and efficiency, it is necessary to form and improve an information and communication culture.
