Online crime is practically always international, because they almost always cross traditional national borders.
In Cyberspace, the First Amendment is a local ordinance.
I'm vitally interested in cyber crime and in preparing law enforcement for a time when crime is international in its origins and its consequences.
There is a certain belief that so long as something is published in cyberspace there is no need to respect the laws of contempt or libel. This is mistaken.
Human rights in cyberspace are really no different from rights in the physical world.
The Internet requires evolved forms of governance that we haven't figured out as a planet. I'd love to help make that easier and make that possible.
The Internet freedom issue we need to focus on is network neutrality.
I'd always maintained that much of the anarchy and craziness of the early Internet had a lot to do with the fact that governments just hadn't realised it was there.
My own view is that the Internet should be run by technologists and engineers and business people, not by lawyers and bureaucrats here in the nation's capital.
If you are concerned you are the victim of illegal corporate surveillance, you should seek specialist - and independent - legal advice at once.
Unfortunately, changing forms of Internet communication are quickly outpacing laws and technology designed to allow for the lawful intercept of communication content.
I do know about stories where hackers that left Russia or Ukraine for Europe or the United States were unexpectedly arrested.
Businesses should be assured that law enforcement will operate with the utmost sensitivity toward victims of cyber attacks.
