從網路犯罪公約談我國妨害電腦使用罪章的修訂 Amending Chapter 36 of the Penal Code of Taiwan on the Basis of the Study on the Cybercrime Convention
Abstract
電腦犯罪已成為當代新興的犯罪類型,各國無不積極面對此一挑戰。我國在2003 年新增刑法第36 章妨害電腦使用罪章,除為了解決電磁紀錄與動產、文書存在不同的屬性外,也希望藉由該章的制定,能對其他影響電腦系統安全、侵害電腦資料完整、保密及可使用的行為加以規範。不過制定至今,該罪章產生不少解釋上或適用上的困難,為解決種種相關的問題與爭議,本文在參考歐洲理事會網路犯罪公約的規範後(第1 篇第1 章第2 條、第4 條、第5 條及第6 條),嘗試對妨害電腦使用罪章提出相關修訂建議(第358 條、第359 第、第360 條及第360 條第1 項、第2 項),期能供立法者於未來修訂該罪章時的參考。 Computer crimes have become a new model of crimes and a new challenge for most countries over the world. In 2003, Taiwan enacted Chapter 36 of the Penal Code to deal with computer crimes. Although the new chapter avoided some application problems caused by treating electro-magnetic records as chattel and documents, the change of coping with computer crimes still raises other new problems. After exploring, this article argues that Taiwan could resolve those new problems by amending Chapter 36 of the Penal Code based on the comparison study of the Cybercrime Convention.
