Information is the oxygen of democracy. If people do not know what is happening in their society, then they cannot take a meaningful part in the affairs of that society. Information belongs not to the state, the government of the day or civil servants, but to the public. The Internet is a present day phenomenon which has helped spread information and made it readily available and widely accessible all around the world.

The rapid development and usage of information and communication technology (ICT) have brought along many crucial issues which confront society today. While websites, blogs, electronic commerce and social networking sites have broken down physical boundaries and made today’s world an information society, these services also raise problems that challenge governments and the people alike. Invasion of privacy, phishing and loss of personal data, cybercrime, cyberporn, online defamation, cyber warfare and damage caused by computer viruses are amongst the serious issues which have to be tackled.

This book critically introduces and discusses the legal and regulatory challenges faced by the state and the society in relation to the Internet and information. It also deals with how ICT can be utilised to deliver justice more efficiently. This is a book which should prove useful to lawyers, in-house counsel, policy-makers, business owners and IT professionals in particular as well as the public in general.
