https://doi.org/10.25205/2542-0410-2025-21-2-61-67
Abstract
The article discusses the current problems of legal assessment of the use of various types of information in the commission of crimes against property. As a result of the conducted research, several criteria have been formulated that endow certain information with the quality of “sensitivity”. It is concluded that any information can acquire the quality of a threat based on its content, form, expression and transmission to the addressee, as well as the peculiarities of the addressees’ subjective perception of such information.
