Which state has and should have the right and power to regulate
sites and online events? Who can apply their defamation or contract
law, obscenity standards, gambling or banking regulation,
pharmaceutical licensing requirements or hate speech prohibitions
to any particular Internet activity? Traditionally, transnational
activity has been 'shared out' between national sovereigns with the
aid of location-centric rules which can be adjusted to the
transnational Internet. But can these allocation rules be stretched
indefinitely, and what are the costs for online actors and for
states themselves of squeezing global online activity into
nation-state law? Does the future of online regulation lie in
global legal harmonisation or is it a cyberspace that increasingly
mirrors the national borders of the offline world? This 2007 book
offers some uncomfortable insights into one of the most important
debates on Internet governance.
