Modern Trends in Implementation and Protection of Personal Non-Property Rights

The paper provides for classification of trends of private law according to the reasons of appearance, scope of application, period of implementation. Individual trends in the exercise and protection of personal non property rights are interrelated with general trends in civil law, while other trends are distinctive and have no analogues. The author substantiates the following modern trends in implementation and protection of personal non-property rights: 1) restrictions on the exercise and protection of certain personal non-property rights under sanctions imposed by unfriendly atates, the European Union, international organizations; 2) transformation of the exercise and protection of personal non-property rights in the conditions of digitalization of society and the economy; 3) search for the qualification of personal data as an object of rights, differentiation of personal data and their legal regulation, commercialization of personal data turnover; 4) recognition of differentiation of personal non-property rights, the emergence of regulatory norms applied to personal non-property relations by the law-maker and the judiciary; 5) increasing number of actions undertaken by copyright holders regarding disposal of individual powers of personal non-property rights; 6) increasing proportion of intentional violations of personal non-property rights that have a shocking nature; 7) the development of several (sometimes strictly tied) methods of protection aimed at suppressing the actions of the violator or suppressing the threat of violation, or at the moral satisfaction of the victim, or at informing others about the fact and essence of the violation. The author proposes measures to solve emerging problems, in particular, to develop rules for admission to the virtual world and regulating participation of minors and persons with certain diseases in the metaverse; to consolidate the rules governing placement, storage and security of personal data, depending on their type; to provide justification for introduction of prohibitions of certain behavior of the violator of personal non-property rights as a civil law method of protection under certain conditions.
