Abstract
Cyberspace is often characterized as a virtual world that transcends space. People log into computers and transact business electronically without regard to their own geographic location or the locations of the systems they use. A consequence of this lack of grounding in the physical world is that actions can take place over modems and computer networks without anyone knowing exactly where they originated.Keywords
