Abstract
Computer crimes have become a new model of crimes and a new challenge
for most countries over the world. In 2003, Taiwan enacted Chapter 36 of the Penal
Code to deal with computer crimes. Although the new chapter avoided some application
problems caused by treating electro-magnetic records as chattel and documents,
the change of coping with computer crimes still raises other new problems.
After exploring, this article argues that Taiwan could resolve those new problems
by amending Chapter 36 of the Penal Code based on the comparison study of the
Cybercrime Convention.
