Abstract

In modern conditions of informatization, the population is faced with problems of a different nature, as well as various forms of manifestation. The problem is considered, which has a universal character, which on a global scale represents the spread of the ideology of terrorism and extremism. At the moment, the world community is making enormous efforts to develop the latest methods and means of combating these particularly serious crimes, such as extremism and terrorism, their consequences are cruel and sometimes even irreparable. When studying issues related to extremism and terrorism on the Internet, well-known theoretical methods were used: deduction and induction, analysis and synthesis. The use of the formal legal method of private law made it possible to study and evaluate the texts of regulatory legal acts. The purpose of study is to analyze the general characteristics of extremism and terrorism on the Internet as an illegal act committed in the field of computer information on a global scale, as well as to identify and resolve the most pressing and controversial issues, both theoretically and practically, in relation to the problem under consideration. Today, terrorists and extremists are increasingly using the sphere of telecommunications and computer information to realize their criminal intentions. Let us note that extremist and terrorist crimes committed specifically using the sphere of computer information pose global threats, are very dangerous and serious not only for Russian society and the state, but also for the world community in general. The damage caused by these types of crimes is growing exponentially.
