Abstract
In the struggle to keep up with the deluge of cyberlaw case law, statutes, regulations, commentaries, opinions from the technical, economic and political presses, international treaty activity, European Directives, rounds of government consultations, conference proceedings and industry Codes of Practice, it is often difficult for those who observe the domain to stop and look at the general trends which make cyberlaw in 2004 a very different animal from when this writer began teaching her first cyberlaw course in 1997. This article discusses trends in the subject of cyberlaw, including the impact of technological developments and their outcomes to reflect on the possible direction for the future of cyberlaw.
