However, they are prohibited from intruding on or disturbing others&#039; privacy without cause, as this would exceed the boundaries of press freedom. Hiring paparazzi to film political opponents is clearly motivated by personal gain, exceeding the boundaries of press freedom and potentially constituting both the crime of obstruction of secrecy under the Criminal Law and the crime of infringing on personal data under the Personal Information Protection Act. These offenses carry a combined sentence of up to five years in prison, a fine of up to NT$1 million, and civil liability for compensation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Fuda Law Firm<br>Line\uff1a<a href=\"https:\/\/line.me\/ti\/p\/@fdlaw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/line.me\/ti\/p\/@fdlaw<\/a><br>Tel:<a href=\"tel:0277093611\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">0277093611<\/a><br>Facebook:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/fudalawyer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/fudalawyer<\/a><br>website:<a href=\"https:\/\/fdlaw.com.tw\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/fdlaw.com.tw\/<\/a><br>e-mail:<a href=\"mailto:info@fdlaw.com.tw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">info@fdlaw.com.tw<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group fdlaw-faq-block is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What crimes might be involved in following, secretly filming, or collecting information about others?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It may involve violations of privacy, personal data protection laws, stalking and harassment prevention laws, privacy infringement, or civil damages, depending on the method of collection and the purpose of use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can freedom of the press be used as a defense against paparazzi filming?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Freedom of the press is not unlimited.
