Abstract

Looks at the beginnings of Internet law in the UK. Examines two traditional areas of law which are currently coming under pressure in the English legal system – defamation and copyright. Briefly presents verdicts of actual cases from US and Australian law, and speculates on the outcomes of these cases had they been put before UK courts.
