Conventional laws sometimes do not stay aligned with their original intent when they are applied to computer
communications systems and networks. The basis of these laws has been built up over many years prior to the
advent of computers and computer information systems, which have evolved in less than a generation.
Computers and information systems bring with them new concepts and situations which existing laws do not
always cover. This new environment has been termed "cyberspace," and refers to the all computer messaging
and information services globally. |
