Internet Day — Cyberlaw Scholarship

In recognition of International Internet Day—a day which marks the first successful computer-to-computer link in 1969—this blog presents a selection of Chicago-Kent faculty scholarship on computer and Internet law. Throughout the Internet’s history, our faculty’s influential scholarship has helped guide the discussions surrounding the Internet’s use, purpose, regulations, and freedoms. Whether they are proposing regulatory schemes for the Internet or drafting a Social Network Constitution, the Chicago-Kent faculty continually find themselves on the cutting edge of cyberlaw.
