Internet censorship is a controversial topic - while the media
periodically sounds alarms at the dangers of online life, the
uncontrollable nature of the internet makes any kind of pervasive
regulatory control impossible. This book compares the Australian
solution, a set of laws which have been criticized as being both
draconian and ineffectual, to major regulatory systems in the UK
and US and understanding what drives them. The 'impossibility' of
internet regulation opens deeper issues - what do we mean by
regulation and how do we judge the certainty and effectiveness of
law? These questions lead to an exploration of the theories of
legal geography which provide tools to understand and evaluate
regulatory practices. The book will be a valuable guide for
academics, students and policy makers working in media and
censorship law, those from a civil liberties interest and people
interested in internet theory generally.
