Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Internet is the first truly global communications medium. Anyone with a computer and an Internet connection can publish material to a potentially vast audience located in any number of countries around the world. The Internet is, at the same time, a great bastion of free speech and amedium of almost limitless international defamation.This title contains the first comprehensive analysis of the application of Anglo-Australian rules of civil defamation law to material published via the Internet. As well as addressing the common law rules as they apply in the United Kingdom and Australia, it covers the operation of statutorymodifications of the common law in each jurisdiction, the specific defences applying to Internet intermediaries, the European Union's Electronic Commerce Directive and comparative case-law from the United States. It also contains a substantial treatment of the relevant principles of jurisdictionand choice of law. The work contains a clear and non-technical explanation of how the Internet works and the various ways in which it is used to publish material. Common Internet terms are defined in a glossary. Relevant legislation has been extracted and reproduced.As this is a field in which there are, as yet, few authorities and a large number of untested issues, the author's systematic approach towards the cause of action, defences and remedies, coupled with the frequent use of contextual examples, means this work will maintain its relevance in this fastmoving area of the law. The title will be an invaluable reference for practitioners, Internet professionals, and students alike.
Download or read book Media Law and Policy in the Internet Age written by Doreen Weisenhaus and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Internet brings opportunity and peril for media freedom and freedom of expression. It enables new forms of publication and extends the reach of traditional publishers, but its power increases the potential damage of harmful speech and invites state regulation and censorship as well as manipulation by private and commercial interests. In jurisdictions around the world, courts, lawmakers and regulators grapple with these contradictions and challenges in different ways with different goals in mind. The media law reforms they are adopting or considering contain crucial lessons for those forming their own responses or who seek to understand how technology is driving such rapid change in how information and opinion are distributed or restricted. In this book, many of the world's leading authorities examine the emerging landscape of reform in nations with variable political and legal contexts. They analyse developments particularly through the prisms of defamation and media regulation, but also explore the impact of technology on privacy law and national security. Whether as jurists, lawmakers, legal practitioners or scholars, they are at the front lines of a story of epic change in how and why the Internet is changing the nature and raising the stakes of 21st century communication and expression.

Download or read book The Online Defamation Law in Malaysia and Indonesia written by Zaky Siraj and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defamation law exists to balance two interests, the rights of freedom of expression and the rights of reputation. It aims to ensure the protection of the person's reputation from being attack or harm by another person. However, with the advent of the internet, the problem on defamation becomes more complicated. The nature of the internet that is easy to access and could reach millions people all over the world, make defamation through this media is more harm to the person's reputation. The present thesis thus compares the law of online defamation in Malaysia and Indonesia on some point; the relevant law of Malaysia and Indonesia relating to cyber defamation; the elements of online defamation; the liability of ISP; the defences and remedies that available under Malaysian and Indonesian law of defamation. This thesis also analyses the basic concept of defamation from Islamic perspective. The methodology of this study is a qualitative and doctrinal research using both analytical and comparative approaches. The primary sources are taken from Malaysian and Indonesian statutes and decided cases. This study also employs unstructured interview with several correspondences who are experts on the issue at hand in order to enrich the analyses on this study. This study discovers that the civil law of defamation in Malaysia is seems well-established while the criminal defamation is almost unknown. While defamation under Indonesian law of defamation is considered as a crime. This situation becomes a common issue that criminal defamation in Indonesia may limit the rights of freedom of expression and democracy. Furthermore, the Islamic law of defamation is more comprehensive and contains solutions to many problems in all circumstances. This research is concluded with a suggestion that there is a clear need for Indonesia to have well-defined provisions regarding civil defamation and criminal defamation. It is perhaps desirable that provisions on criminal defamation to be reconsidered or perhaps should be eliminated from the proposed new defamation law. On the other hand, although Malaysia has already well-established civil defamation law which in line with the principle of freedom of expression, it is better to absorb the principle of Islamic law of defamation. Because the Islamic law of defamation contains the provisions relating to all the problems of individual, communities and states as well.
