Abstract
Privacy is a necessary element of quality life in modern society. Although rapid development of technology has made it impossible to foresee the development trend of privacy with certainty, it is significant for Chinese lawmakers to consider the future. This chapter thus looks ahead to possible developments, which might affect privacy in China. In this chapter, the significance of the privacy balance will be restated briefly. Moreover, a number of other possible future developments, which could affect the direction of Chinese privacy legislation, will be briefly discussed.
