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.

Book excerpt: In a great many cases, however, the reputational harm derived not from the posting of a false statement, but from the posting of either a true statement or a non-consensual disclosure where the truth of the contents of the disclosure was not in dispute (e.g. [...] The internet, in particular, could re-open a variety of issues of relevance to defamation law and to the social value of the protection of reputation because it offers a widespread opportunity for all of those with a connection to distribute their messages, often with an added sense of anonymity. [...] For example, all of our participants recognized Instagram as a place to build a reputation as "artsy" and to post things about "your life and food and tips and hacks" (Ashley) to show you are living an "outgoing, happy and ... fruitful life" (Caitlyn); Facebook was seen as a place to appear to be "social", "family-oriented", "accomplished" and someone who travels; and LinkedIn was a place to "be pro [...] They don't actually get to see yourself ... someone like that like sees me in person would obviously know like the more like traits about me ... people do-like that like know you in real life, there's just going to know like the full side of you ... So like there's these like almost like these two-the person you're trying to portray on social media versus like the person you kind of are. [...] For example: ... in the realm of like dating and all like people like always look at how many followers you have and like what's ... your ratio, you know, how many people, ah, you follow compared to following you ... That's like a big thing ... Like, if I see like a girl with like 2,000 followers and like she's only following 1,000, I'm going to like be intrigued and like look more, right?

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.

This book was released on 2012-12-15 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now that online communication has become a routine part of everyday life, it is important for teens to understand how constitutional principles apply in the digital age. According to the courts, the First Amendment right to free speech applies online. However, this guarantee is subject to the same limits as in person and in print: citizens cant defame, libel, or slander others. But due to the anonymity, speed, and enormous reach of the Internet, it is unfortunately easier than ever to destroy a persons reputation by posting false information online. The author explains what kinds of speech constitute defamation, including libel and slander, and how to handle the issue when it arises in teen life. Related issues, including cyberbullying and hate speech, are also addressed.

Book excerpt: APPLYING THE LCO FRAMEWORKS TO ONTARIO'S LEGAL CAPACITY, DECISION-MAKING AND GUARDIANSHIP LAWS 1 Defamation Law in the Internet Age Consultation Paper November, 2017 ABOUT THE LAW COMMISSION OF ONTARIO The Law Commission of Ontario (LCO) was created by an Agreement among the Law Foundation of Ontario, the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General, Osgoode Hall Law School and the Law Society of Uppe [...] The mandate of the LCO is to recommend law reform measures to enhance the legal system's relevance, effectiveness and accessibility; improve the administration of justice through the clarification and simplification of the law; consider the use of technology to enhance access to justice; stimulate critical legal debate; and support scholarly research. [...] The issues addressed in the project and the Consultation Paper include: •. The law of defamation in Ontario today and its limitations; •. How the legal, technological, and social landscape of the early 21st century influences and challenges "traditional" defamation law; •. A consideration of the legal elements of defamation in light of "internet speech"; •. Access to justice in defamation matters; [...] Rather, for the purpose of this project, we have two main concerns: the overall balance struck by these elements between protection of reputation and freedom of expression, and how successfully these elements operate in the context of internet communications The LCO's other focus in this chapter is on the operation of the elements of the tort as applied to the new forms of defamatory communication [...] In this chapter, the LCO reviews the various elements that make up the legal test for defamation and considers how the development of the Charter and the internet should affect any potential reforms to the law.
