This article will provide a synopsis of the emerging and rapidly changing area of electronic law. The overview provides an introduction to the basic legal framework governing electronic law and some of the most important issues that courts and legislators have addressed in creating law for the dynamic landscape of electronic communication and commerce. These issues include the scope of electronic law as it relates to jurisdiction, cyber crimes, and criminal liability. Other issues at the forefront of electronic law that this article examines include privacy and security rights and intellectual property protections. In addition, this article will describe some of the factors affecting the development of electronic law, such as whether taxation of e-commerce transactions is warranted, how electronic laws will adapt to emerging technologies, and the development of a legal process to regulate the booming world of e-commerce. Finally, a brief examination of how technology is infiltrating modern life and raising significant questions about how electronic law can both protect the privacy rights of individuals while promoting the growth of technology and business development is provided through descriptions of the legal issues surrounding RFID devices, electronic surveillance, and privacy protections of personal, medical, and financial records.
