August 2003 Modern communications and computing technologies have greatly facilitated identity-related crime, particularly that which crosses jurisdictional borders. This paper, which was published in the British Society of Criminology Journal, v. 5 August 2003, reviews the manner in which transnational electronic crimes involving misuse of identity take place, and considers various legislative, technological and risk- management responses available to deal with them. It is concluded that although technology will provide some of the solutions, these need to be supported by a simple and effective legal regime to ensure that instances of abuse can be prosecuted and that individual privacy is safeguarded. Rather than relying totally on the deterrent effects of criminal prosecution and punishment, those who travel through cyberspace need to be made aware of the risks they face and how best to protect themselves.

Extractions: Cybertime, Cyberspace and Cyberlaw [FN 2] Nicole Stegner [FN 3] [FN 4] As the form of information changes from something tangible to something electronic, changes will occur in legal institutions and processes that have been oriented around particular physical spaces, and in legal concepts and doctrines that have depended upon a relationship with a particular space. [FN 5] became part of popular culture, Innis asserted that "the materials on which words were written down have often counted for more than the words themselves." [FN 6] Innis argued that while public attention is often focused on the content of the new medium, the key to understanding long term change lay elsewhere, particularly in how a medium either permits or hinders communication over space and either encourages or discourages the preservation of information over time. [FN 7] More than this, the law might be said to have a "sense of place" or be "of a place" in that there are informational places that are central to the process and operation of law. Law libraries are an obvious example of a legal information place, but so are individual items, such as books, or even artifacts, such as contracts. For such physical information places, however, the new technologies facilitate access or create new relationships with information by overcoming physical limits associated with the walls of the library, the binding of a book, and even the margins of a page.

Extractions: Prying Eyes in Cyberspace By Jonathan Alger Have you ever sent an e-mail message, and then worried about what might happen if someone other than the intended recipient read it? Would you modify your computer use if you knew that the administration could detect every visit you make to any Web site on the Internet? Many faculty members act as though e-mail and the Internet are as private and secure as "snail mail" or the telephone. They are surprised to learn that the law does not necessarily support this assumption. As Internet and e-mail access has expanded on campuses everywhere, so too have controversies that have legal implications for colleges and their faculty, staff, and students. One college recently sought to protect itself from potential defamation claims by prohibiting a tenured economics professor from sending e-mail messages on campus computers to a long list of addresses and Listservs. The professor and college had been threatened with a lawsuit stemming from messages the professor sent about one member of a tribunal investigating alleged abuse of American Indian children in religious schools.

Extractions: Nancy Gallagher , University of California-Santa Barbara Reprinted from the Middle East Studies Association Bulletin Middle East Studies Association of North America HUMAN RIGHTS activists and scholars are finding information technology advantageous in their work. Through electronic communication activists can disseminate information widely, rapidly and inexpensively with far less labor than before. Censorship can often be circumvented. Information can be easily compiled, analyzed and managed. Action alerts can be disseminated almost instantaneously. Distances are reduced to nearly nothing. Not surprisingly, human rights resources on the Internet are increasing by leaps and bounds. There are, however, limitations for the human rights community. First, the technology and infrastructure are expensive, and many regions lag in access to the Internet. Consequently, only a small group of people have access to the Internet, though its influence is far greater than the number of users. Second, while materials in most languages can be accessed, English remains the dominant on-line language. Third, materials published on the Internet are not subject to outside review by experts in the field; anybody can post anything to the Web, and users must be aware of this. Fourth, despite hopes of unhindered communication, many governments are taking steps to control politically and culturally sensitive material. Human Rights Watch has surveyed efforts to censor the Internet; for information on Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, Morocco, Iran and Saudi Arabia, see

A graphic representation of data abstracted from the banks of every computer in the human system. Unthinkable complexity. Lines of light ranged in the nonspace of the mind, clusters and constellations of data. Like city lights, receding . . . . Cyberspace is a spatio-temporal figure of postmodernity and its regimes of flexible accumulation. Like the genome, the other higher-order structures of cyberspace, which are displaced in counterintuitive ways from the perceptual assumptions of bodies in mundane space, are simultaneously fiercely material realities and imaginary zones. These are the zones that script the future, just as the new instruments of debt scheduling and financial mobility script the future of communities around the globe. Donna J.

Hornsby, Jr., staff counsel to the American Bar Association Commission on Advertising, in the Association's Legal Services Division. The views expressed here are his own and should not be construed to reflect the policies of the ABA. What happens when the legal profession embraces a new medium as a vehicle to market its services? When that medium is cyberspace, worlds collide. On the one hand, there's the internet, the intriguing information superhighway, an academically inspired network offering a free-for-all of information with no limit on its content. On the other hand, there's the legal profession, self-regulating, steeped in tradition, slow to change and fundamentally skeptical of commercialism within its ranks. As a result, the profession finds itself approaching a tool limited in one extreme only by the imaginations of those navigating cyberspace, yet limited in the other extreme by the application of the rules governing the conduct of lawyers, including, specifically, their marketing activities. Even though the internet existed prior to the time the U.S. Supreme Court lifted the ban on lawyer advertising in 1977, it has only become a viable vehicle for marketing legal services within the past year. As law firms go from the Yellow Pages to home pages, they are embracing the internet at a phenomenal pace. Reportedly, five law firms had home pages on the World Wide Web in November 1994. Seven months later, that figure was estimated at 500 law firms.
