AB - This study examines the ethical way to overcome the conflict between freedom and equality in the realm of information rights. This study demonstrates that it must be asserted to the extent that the rights to know do not infringe on the rights to be unknown. In this way, we can accomplish freedom through equality and realize the autonomy in controlling information. The rights to know and the rights to be unknown must be balanced so that the information rights may be completed. Information rights should be integrated into the rights to control self-information. Cyberculture has contributed significantly to fulfilling the re- quests to know, but it reveals limitations in protecting the rights to be unknown. The issue of information rights in cyberspace should start from establishing ethical consciousness rather than the enactment of laws. In the cyberculture, where autonomy is the sovereign norm, the autonomous control of information is at once rights and responsibility. If we want to sustain inform-society, we should establish the ethical consciousness before legal authority invades information rights. In cyber reality, he who has information becomes the subject, and he who has no information becomes the object. Therefore, an individual’s autonomous sense of responsibility can be the only norm. When information rights are extended to control self-information, information rights, and information responsibility can be harmonized
