Details

In today’s digital age, understanding the legal and ethical rules that govern cyberspace is essential – not just for future lawyers, but for anyone navigating careers in media, technology, business or government. The updated and expanded second edition of Cyber Law and Ethics continues to offer a practical, student-friendly introduction to the fast-changing world of cyber law.

Written by two journalists-turned-lawyers-turned-professors, the book demystifies complex legal concepts and explores real-world dilemmas surrounding online speech, privacy, cyber security, intellectual property, artificial intelligence and digital commerce. It tackles timely and often controversial issues, including cancel culture and content moderation, AI-generated deepfakes and chatbots, revenge porn and age verification laws, cryptocurrency regulation and financial censorship, cybercrime and hacking, and the global battle over who controls the internet.

With clear, engaging writing and real-life examples, Cyber Law and Ethics avoids legal jargon and instead offers a bottom-line approach tailored for undergraduate students. Drawing on years of classroom experience, the authors break down difficult topics in an accessible way – equipping students with the digital literacy and critical thinking skills they need to understand the rules shaping our connected world. A suite of instructor’s resources is also available to further support teaching and engagement.
