Based on the analysis of the current practice of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, the article notes that the spread of modern technologies has had a serious impact on the constitutional status of the individual: due to the development of the Internet, the list of constitutional rights and freedoms has expanded, additional ways of their implementation have appeared. The development of digitalization processes in all spheres of public life has had an impact, including on the interpretation of the constitutional right to privacy, which was taken into account in the interpretative activities of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation. This trend is reflected in the fact that constitutional-judicial practice accumulates cases related to the resolution of contradictions arising between the rights of private entities (for example, the right to privacy and freedom of speech), and not in the relationship of the individual and the government. In addition, the article emphasizes that with the brevity of the constitutional regulation of relations arising in connection with the spread of the Internet, and confusing legislation in the relevant field, judicial authorities (including the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation) are actively involved in resolving conflicts concerning, in particular, the right to privacy.
