Description

This course will focus on the regulation of the online world and its social and cultural expression, and will explore these ideas from the viewpoint of users, community members, creators, citizens and consumers, particularly those engaging with Social Media and other ‘user generated content’ services. Cyberspace Law 2.0 is a General Studies elective subject for non-law- students, while LAWS3532 is available for certain law students.

It provides a good grounding for understanding how the legal and regulatory world interacts with online ones, especially from the perspective of the socially and culturally active individual. (While there are elements of market regulation and consumer protection considered, these are not the main focus.)
