Discussion on Issues of Inheritance of Internet Virtual Property

Abstract

With the increasingly close connection between the Internet and citizens, the Internet virtual property is increasing in large amount. Although the viewpoints the parties hold about “virtual property” are different in the judicial practice, the analysis from the perspective of legal principle indicates that virtual property should be included in the legacy as “legitimate property” and legally inherited by its successor without doubt. In addition, there is a need to improve the laws and regulations on Internet user protocol and coordinate the interests of all parties.
