GrepLaw interviews Joel Reidenberg: Joel Reidenberg on Hack Toolz, Lex Informatica, and Affirming Non-US Democratic Values

Joel Reidenberg, professor at Fordham University School of Law, talks with GrepLaw about how "hack tools" (such as packet interceptors, viral e-mails, filters, and DoS attacks) give democratic states the ability to enforce their freely chosen public policies within their territories. Mr. Reidenberg challenges the conventional wisdom that said either the person or the person’s assets needed to be within the state’s physical territory to enforce the state’s law.
