Digital Law
Digital Law deals with the ethical use of technology. Unethical use means that the user has committed theft and/or crime, and ethical use means that the user has abided by the laws of society. Yes, you CAN break the law on the internet, and yes, you CAN get in a lot of trouble for it. It is important to use technology in an ethical manner.
