Stating that in the era of mobile Internet, mobile phones have become indispensable tools for life and work,  Zhu Zhengfu, member of the CPPCC National Committee and Vice Chairman of the National Law Society said on February 27, 2018 that "Today's mobile phones involve not only the freedom of communication and the secrets of communications, but also the citizens' rights to property and privacy." Zhu Zhengfu suggested that mobile telephones be seqized only in cases of criminal investigation and that since they contain a lot of private personal information there should be strict checks and procedures for seizing mobile phones.
