extrait de 4e de couverture : "The author demonstrates that the Internet as a global communications space i a self-organising entity that has proven problematic for regulators, and that in order to regulate cyberspace, one must first uderstand how the network operates. In order to illustrate how the world wide web operates, Andrés Guadamuz presents case studies in copyright policy, peer-production ans cybercrime, providing in-depth analyses of challenges posed by the Internet's complex dynamic networks. The book concludes that regulatory efforts that ignore empirical evidence will utimately encounter serious problems."
