The Wild Wild West of the Internet
is lawless!
What is internet law?
Internet law – sometimes called cyberlaw – refers to the legal principles and regulations that govern the internet's use.
There isn't any.
There are some laws regarding data security.
In Data Security Law, the Bad Character is the one with the data?
There is no single law regulating online privacy. Again this is based on Jurisdiction.
Instead, a patchwork quilt of federal and state laws apply. In addition, different jurisdictions around the world may have different interpretations of how to apply internet privacy laws.
US Privacy Act of 1974
Federal Trade Commission Act
Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act
California Consumer Privacy Act
General Data Protection Regulation
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
Internet privacy laws: Conclusion
Different jurisdictions around the world have their own internet privacy and data security laws.
For example, Brazil has the Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD) while Canada has the Consumer Privacy Protection Act (CPPA), both of which are
broadly similar in scope to the EU’s GDPR or California’s CCPA.
In the US, there is no one comprehensive federal law that governs data privacy. Internet regulation is a complex patchwork of sector-specific and medium-specific laws, including laws and regulations that address telecommunications, health information, credit information, financial institutions, and marketing.
One of the best ways to protect your online privacy and data security is using a comprehensive antivirus solution.
A product like Kaspersky Total Security blocks common and complex threats like viruses, malware, ransomware, spy apps,
and the latest hacker activities.
The Bottom Line --- The Bad Character that attacks and overcomes the security measures is Not even mentioned!
