Punishment of the crime

The F'F'G' is a search ranking manipulation program, and when the address of a specific key, Blog and web site is entered, a program that regularly visits the relevant Blogs or web site through the process of creating IP addresses, changing us-ags, and deletion, and transmits false character information to the search system of the portal site.

1. On April 2016, Defendant A, who operates an advertising agency in Eunpyeong-gu Seoul, “I Co., Ltd.”, purchased two of the above programs from J, a seller of smart freezing program at the above company office in total at 660,000 won, and installed the above program on the cell phone from April 30, 2016 to May 3, 2016, and connected the above program using the certification number and password.

In fact, although unspecified users entered the keyboard, such as "food that is good in a blood certificate," and talked on the NA, such as K, etc., and repeatedly changed the IP, although there was no visit, and as many users have talked on 6,518 times through the above NAV search system, false character information is sent periodically to the NAV search system.

In addition, the NAV search system had a wrong perception of the fact that there was a visit to the above notice, and had the relevant NAV display be exposed to the top of the search order.

As a result, the defendant entered a false information or improper order into a computer or any other information processing device, or caused an obstacle to data processing by other means, and thereby interfered with the provision of NAV search services by the company that intends to indicate the priority of the results of the NAV integrated search by users according to the frequency of search and visit.
