In view of the increasing involvement of technology in all walks of life, an understanding of the regulatory framework governing its use and misuse is essential for all. Technology Laws Decoded was conceived to become a single point reference on substantive and procedural aspects of Cyber Laws. This seminal work on Cyber Laws carves out the dalliance between Constitution, Crimes, IPR, and Contracts with technology laws, thereby evolving into a separate field of study. The book addresses procedural complexities through detailed analyses of Electronic Evidence and Jurisdiction in Cyberspace.
The author, Ms. N. S. Nappinai, Advocate, has adopted an engaging and thematic approach to deliver a holistic and comprehensive perspective on cyber laws. Her scholarly analysis of topics ranging from Cyber policies, Cyber warfare and terrorism, cyber crimes, and the impact of the cyber domain on media and entertainment, gaming, animation, sports, personality rights, makes the book relevant for legislators and policymakers, judiciary, armed forces, intelligence agencies, police, legal practitioners, businesses, industries, and students.
