Issues in Internet Law: Society, Technology, and the Law, 2008 edition
The 2008 edition of Issues In Internet Law: Society, Technology, and the Law has been updated with more than 100 pages of the latest cases and trends in Internet Law. Advances in technology have always changed societies, and there has never been as far-reaching and profound an advance as the Internet. Suppose you buy something online; was that online contract you clicked on really enforceable, even if you just scrolled down and did not read it? Is receiving pornography in office e-mail from your co-workers sexual harassment? Can stalkers find your personal information online? What can you legally place on your website? And what’s not allowed? Do you own your domain name? Can a public library censor your use of its Internet-linked computers? Who else can read your e-mail? Is it legal to gamble online? How “private” is your private information after you disclose it to a website? Is a student exercising his First Amendment rights when he creates a hate website on a public school’s Internet server? Do other countries address these issues differently from the U.S.? Which country’s laws apply on the Internet? These are just some of the issues addressed in this book. Issues In Internet Law: Society, Technology, and the Law can be read by the average person to develop an awareness of issues in Internet Law and is also designed for use as a textbook.

Social Consequences of Internet Use: Access, Involvement, and Interaction
Drawing on nationally representative telephone surveys conducted from 1995 to 2000, James Katz and Ronald Rice offer a rich and nuanced picture of Internet use in America. Using quantitative data, as well as case studies of Web sites, they explore the impact of the Internet on society from three perspectives: access to Internet technology (the digital divide), involvement with groups and communities through the Internet (social capital), and use of the Internet for social interaction and expression (identity). To provide a more comprehensive account of Internet use, the authors draw comparisons across media and include Internet nonusers and former users in their research.
The authors call their research the Syntopia Project to convey the Internet’s role as one among a host of communication technologies as well as the synergy between people’s online activities and their real-world lives. Their major finding is that Americans use the Internet as an extension and enhancement of their daily routines. Contrary to media sensationalism, the Internet is neither a utopia, liberating people to form a global egalitarian community, nor a dystopia-producing armies of disembodied, lonely individuals. Like any form of communication, it is as helpful or harmful as those who use it.
