摘要：This article is part of a larger project: the study of the influence of the Internet on Brazilian law. The quick development of the Internet, including the exchange of goods and services, can be compared to the Industrial Revolution. The total absence of frontiers in the Internet is both admirable and fearful. The Internet is “independent”; however, it cannot subsist without the influence of a legal system. The national laws of any country are suited for application to the Internet because there is no single regulation. Nevertheless, such laws may not be applied directly because they would have to be adapted to the new legal patterns used in the Internet. This article pays special attention to trademarks and domain names piracy in the Internet.
