The Internet And Political Campaigns: Some Early Considerations, Ibpp Editor
International Bulletin of Political Psychology
This article provides hypotheses on the effects of the Internet on political campaigns. The IBPP staff hopes that researchers among its readers will attempt to evaluate these hypotheses through combinations of empiricism, rationalism, and other epistemological approaches.
State Sales & Use Tax On Internet Transactions, Sandi Owen
State Sales & Use Tax On Internet Transactions, Sandi Owen
Federal Communications Law Journal
The explosive growth of electronic commerce raises serious questions about the viability of the current state sales and use tax system. Sales via the Internet and other electronic means are changing both the form and substance of consumer transactions, and such sales often do not satisfy the traditional nexus requirement for state taxation because on-line vendors frequently lack physical presence in the purchaser’s home state. The inability to collect taxes on this growing segment of the retail sales market will impair states’ efforts to raise revenues and cause economically similar transactions to be treated differently. Consequently, Congress must act pursuant …

Lochner In Cyberspace: The New Economic Orthodoxy Of "Rights Management", Julie E. Cohen
Lochner In Cyberspace: The New Economic Orthodoxy Of "Rights Management", Julie E. Cohen
Michigan Law Review
Ninety-three years ago, in Lochner v. New York, the Supreme Court struck down a maximum-working-hours law for bakers as an impermissible invasion of employer-employee liberty of contract and, by implication, of the employer's property rights in his business. Lochner came to symbolize, and was vilified for, a vision of state power as rigidly circumscribed by the operation of judicially-determined laws of social ordering. By the late 1930s, the Court had changed course and accepted that the states' police power - or, in the case of Congress, the commerce power - encompassed even protective regulation of the parameters of the private …

Jurisdiction In Cyberspace: A Theory Of International Spaces, Darrel C. Menthe
Jurisdiction In Cyberspace: A Theory Of International Spaces, Darrel C. Menthe
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
Unfortunately, when the law confronts cyberspace the usual mode of analysis is analogy, asking not "What is cyberspace?" but "What is cyberspace like?" The answers are varied: a glorified telephone, a bookstore, a bulletin board. I propose that we look at cyberspace not in these prosaic terms, but rather through the lens of international law in order to give cyberspace meaning in our jurisprudence. The thesis of this paper is that there exists in international law a type of territory which I call "international space." Currently there are three such international spaces: Antarctica, outer space, and the high seas. For …
"Chilling" The Internet? Lessons From Fcc Regulation Of Radio Broadcasting , Thomas W. Hazlett, David W. Sosa
"Chilling" The Internet? Lessons From Fcc Regulation Of Radio Broadcasting , Thomas W. Hazlett, David W. Sosa
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
Congress included the Communications Decency Act (CDA) in the Telecommunications Act signed into law on February 8, 1996. The bill seeks to outlaw the use of computers and phone lines to transmit "indecent" material with provisions of jail terms and heavy fines for violators. Proponents of the bill argue it is necessary to protect minors from undesirable speech on the Internet. The CDA was immediately challenged in court by the American Civil Liberties Union, and the special 3-judge federal panel established to hear the case recently declared the Act unconstitutional. Yet, its ultimate adjudication remains in doubt. Ominously, the federal …
Profits In Cyberspace: Should Newspaper And Magazine Publishers Pay Freelance Writers For Digital Content?, Rod Dixon Esq.
Profits In Cyberspace: Should Newspaper And Magazine Publishers Pay Freelance Writers For Digital Content?, Rod Dixon Esq.
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
It is remarkable how fast recent trends have driven an increasing number of publishers of magazines, newspapers, and other similar works to port the print version of their works to digital and electronic format in the form of online computer databases and multimedia CDROM technologies. Online computer databases and CD-ROM media can be exceptionally profitable ventures for publishers who convert a preexisting print work into a digital product. However, publishers' profits from digital media may be impaired if there is a question as to whether the publisher has satisfactorily secured the copyright to the material making up the digital media. …
What State Am I In?: Common Law Trademarks On The Internet , Brian L. Berlandi
What State Am I In?: Common Law Trademarks On The Internet , Brian L. Berlandi
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
This essay explores the interaction between common law trademarks and the Internet--a relationship that has yet to be scrutinized by the intellectual property and Internet communities. More specifically, it strains to identify a common law mark's territorial zone of protection with respect to the Internet. This is an ambitious endeavor from the start, for there is no case law or published academic material available or directly on-point. As a result, this essay will not be a critique of judicial precedent or academic opinion. Instead, it offers a premonition of future case law and a foreshadowing of legal scenarios that might …

Law Of Nations In Cyberspace: Fashioning A Cause Of Action For The Supression Of Human Rights Reports On The Internet , Thomas Cochrane
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
For nearly two decades, two U.S. statutes have provided redress to victims of human rights abuses: the Alien Tort Statute and the Torture Victim Protection Act. A handful of plaintiffs have recovered under these laws against foreign perpetrators of a narrow range of human rights violations. The growth and proliferation of communications technology raises important questions about how these statutes will be used in the future. Human rights activists have discovered that they can instantly communicate over the Internet with supporters and news media anywhere in the world. Repressive regimes have responded by attempting to restrict such communications. Could cutting …

Electronic Communications And The Law: Help Or Hindrance To Telecommuting?, Jennifer C. Dombrow
Electronic Communications And The Law: Help Or Hindrance To Telecommuting?, Jennifer C. Dombrow
Federal Communications Law Journal
During 1997, an estimated 11.1 million workers preformed some portion of their work by telecommuting. This number is expected to grow as employers continue to discover the benefits that can result from instituting a telecommuting policy. This growth may be hindered, however, by controversy concerning employee privacy rights. Although the use of electronic communications in the workplace is common, the laws addressing employee privacy rights and employer monitoring rights concerning these communications are ambiguous. New legislation is necessary to specifically define the respective rights of employers and employees. Without this new legislation, the benefits of electronic communications in the workplace, …

Reno V. American Civil Liberties Union: First Amendment Free Speech Guarantee Extended To The Internet, Rafic H. Barrage
Reno V. American Civil Liberties Union: First Amendment Free Speech Guarantee Extended To The Internet, Rafic H. Barrage
Mercer Law Review
In Reno v. American Civil Liberties Union, the United States Supreme Court considered the constitutionality of two provisions of the Communications Decency Act ("CDA") of 1996. At issue was the validity of the "indecent" transmission and "patently offensive" display provisions of the CDA that attempted to regulate Internet content with the objective of protecting minors from harmful material. The Court struck down both provisions as violative of the First Amendment right to free speech.

Letter From The Editor, Jennifer S. Coates
Richmond Journal of Law & Technology
Each day we are bombarded with news reports about the Internet. The word, and indeed the cyber society behind it, has become as much a part of our daily lives as television and the postal service. Four years ago, when the Journal’s founder Richard Klau proposed the idea of an exclusively online law journal, the Internet was not only in the background, but some doubted the new medium would ever develop into a mature form of communication. As the fourth Editor-in-Chief of the Journal, I am satisfied and delighted that what was once an esoteric tool for programmers has evolved …

Choosing Law In Cyberspace: Copyright Conflicts On Global Networks, Andreas P. Reindl
Choosing Law In Cyberspace: Copyright Conflicts On Global Networks, Andreas P. Reindl
Michigan Journal of International Law
This article contends that in the digital era, the current system of national, territorially limited copyright laws requires a flexible copyright choice of law regime. To promote certainty and predictability in the choosing of the copyright law applicable to acts of exploitation, choice of law rules should use the location of a user as the principal factor to determine the applicable copyright law. In appropriate circumstances, the choice of law rules should allow the application of a multitude of national copyright laws to single acts of use on digital networks. This article also argues that a broad application of flexible …

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
If you thought "Beauregard" claims were a slippery slope to an uncertain end, you were right! The new frontier after In re Beauregard is the "propagated signal" claim -- a claim directed to a manufactured transient phenomenon, such as an electrical, optical, or acoustical signal, that could further revolutionize the way communications and software companies protect their intellectual property. It can make procuring patents less expensive and result in more extensive coverage, while challenging the limits of conventional wisdom. This new claim type will be viewed by some as a threat, and by others, as yet another step in the …
