Jurisdictional issues would have to be one of the biggest hurdles facing internet regulation today. Given that the internet is accessible on a global scale, the current model of each country individually regulating the internet within its own borders provides little certainty for international companies and consumers.
However, how does one even begin to contemplate achieving agreement regarding a global approach to internet regulations? While cases such as Heriot v Byrne and Gutnick illustrate the need for international cooperation regarding internet laws, the reality is that currently any global approach is not foreseeable.
