Description
The unprecedented events that have taken place in recent years have led legislators and governments throughout the world to reconsider and restructure their policies regarding security issues. Today, worldwide attention is being given to a new security threat, in the form of global terrorism. Legal systems are being called upon to provide a response to these threats, in all areas of life, including the online environment.
Among its many tools, global terror also uses advanced technological methods. This fact presents a difficult challenge to policymakers. Therefore, we have chosen to focus this book on the issue of formulating appropriate policy at the interface between security and technology, human rights and economic policy.
The fundamental issue the tension between security needs and civil rights is not new. A great deal of experience has been amassed in various countries in this regard, and the question that now arises is whether the existing system of principles and laws, developed on the basis of experience gathered in the concrete world, is applicable to the digital environment.
This book presents the position that the online environment is a significant and relevant theater of activity in the fight against terror, and will identify the threats, the security needs, and the issues that are unique to this environment. We examine whether the unique characteristics of this environment require new legal solutions, or whether existing solutions are sufficient. Three areas of online activity are identified that require reexamination: security, monitoring, and propaganda. For each of these, we will indicate the issues, examine existing legal arrangements, and offer guidelines for formulating legal policy. There is a demonstrated need to relate to the digital environment as a battlefront, map the new security threats, and thereby hope to provide focus to the pressing discussion on today's legislative and technological agenda.

**描述**
近年來發生的前所未有事件使得全球的立法者和政府重新考慮並重組其安全政策。如今,全球的注意力集中在一種新的安全威脅上,即全球恐怖主義。法律系統被要求對這些威脅作出回應,涵蓋生活的各個領域,包括線上環境。
在其眾多工具中,全球恐怖主義也利用先進的技術手段。這一事實對政策制定者提出了艱巨的挑戰。因此,我們選擇將本書的重點放在安全與技術、人權與經濟政策之間的適當政策制定問題上。
安全需求與公民權利之間的緊張關係並不新鮮。在這方面,各國積累了大量的經驗,而現在出現的問題是,基於具體世界中所收集的經驗所發展的現有原則和法律體系,是否適用於數位環境。
本書提出的立場是,線上環境是對抗恐怖主義的重要且相關的活動舞台,並將識別出這一環境中的威脅、安全需求和獨特問題。我們將檢視這一環境的獨特特徵是否需要新的法律解決方案,或現有的解決方案是否已足夠。我們確定了三個需要重新檢視的線上活動領域:安全、監控和宣傳。對於每一個領域,我們將指出問題,檢視現有的法律安排,並提供法律政策制定的指導方針。顯示出需要將數位環境視為戰場,繪製新的安全威脅地圖,從而希望為當前立法和技術議程中的緊迫討論提供焦點。
