摘要：In the present era of cyber laws, the issues of privacy, data protection and control (especially trans-border data flows); cyber crimes and crimes assisted by computers, cyber-terrorism, computer forgery and fraud; cyber squatting, intellectual property protection including Digital Rights Management (DRM); various Internet regulations coming up time to time; e-commercial ventures; applied cryptography, digital watermarking; online memorandum of understanding between various parties and stake holders; have become open. The academic courses in cyber law with a pre-defined body of knowledge often fail to answer the questions related to multi-faceted cyber issues. Starting from the post- Second World War expansion of rights to privacy and travelling through the emergence of data protection, the author, Ian J Lloyd, successfully covers the cyber-legal issues that require to be addressed in the light of today’s enactment of IT Laws. He also recognizes the dynamic nature of cyber-legal problems as his each chapter is followed by ‘Suggestions for further reading’. The reading suggestions were carefully crafted by the author who used his keen skill to premeditate the queries that readers are likely to have and to provide relevant tools and sources to independently investigate them. In practice, the sources were seen to lead the reader to the answers to further questions – almost as if Ian J Lloyd was able to read the minds of his readers.
