Dr. Younis Okleh Muflih Almahasneh
Abstract

In the age of modern technologies, the civil protection of the right to image has become a subject of great interest as progress continues in digital photography and social media platforms in reshaping the way images are shared and disseminated. It is necessary to understand and address the legal and ethical implications surrounding this right. This topic is of particular importance because it involves achieving a delicate balance between protecting the privacy of individuals and adhering to the principles of freedom of expression. With the rapid development of technology, it is necessary to explore the challenges and opportunities that arise in the field of protecting the right to image in the digital landscape today. This study aims to delve into These complexities and the study of legal frameworks and possible solutions necessary to ensure the civil protection of the right to the image in light of modern technologies. A comparative study was conducted that focused on the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The study revealed that the three countries have developed legal provisions to protect the right to the image, which confirms its importance in the digital age. However, there are differences between these countries regarding the definitions, scope and level of protection provided by their legislation. This confirms the need for coordination and clarity in the definition and enforcement of the right to the image across these jurisdictions. The study highlights on the need to adapt legal frameworks to meet the challenges posed by modern technologies and emphasizes the importance of international cooperation to develop coherent and effective measures to protect the right to image in the digital age.
