La ausencia de regulación sobre la protección de la identidad digital de niños, niñas y adolescentes en el ordenamiento jurídico ecuatoriano.

Abstract

This thesis covers a detailed analysis of the rights to digital identity protection enjoyed by children and adolescents. In a society where digital resources are increasingly present in people's lives, the thesis examines the potential repercussions of the lack of clear, prior, public, and concrete regulations regarding how to respond to situations such as excessive digital sharenting, the abuse of metadata, and the algorithms of applications such as social media or others that store, process, and create information for commercial purposes or unlawful personal use. The thesis concludes with a proposal for regulatory reforms to combat these new forms of violations of minors' right to digital identity protection and requests the Superintendency of Data Protection to contribute more to the monitoring and protection of the personal data of this vulnerable group.
