Abstract
In principle, a Web site owner or e-commerce trader might inadvertently breach any law in any part of the world, with potentially infinite liability. The issues discussed, as they apply to commercial business over the Internet, include the legal protection of valuable but intangible assets of data and information. Certain information is formally regulated. Legal risk management is effected through administrative procedures and enforceable contracts.
