9. An American Journalist Sued in Australia Files a Petition Seeking Help By ANITA RAMASASTRY I will argue that the U.N. is not the right forum to resolve these key questions. A few years ago, Australian mining magnate Joe Gutnick sued American reporter Bill Alpert for defamation in Australia. Now, in an unprecedented move, Alpert has taken his case to the U.N. - filing a petition with the Human Rights Committee. The case itself) and the disposition of the petition, are likely to be landmarks in the law regarding international jurisdiction with respect to Internet publications. Alpert claims in his petition that a decision by Australia 1 s High Court, forcing him to face suit there, denied him the right of free speech. For this reason, he argues, it breached Article 19 of the United Nations 1 International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR).

10. An American Journalist Sued in Australia Files a Petition Seeking Help By ANITA RAMASASTRY (Continued) In this instance, the nation in which the case is tried is likely to make a significant different to the outcome. Defamation laws in Australia are stricter than in the US, where the First Amendment generally permits comments such as those made in the article. And if Australian defamation law applies) Internet publication may have to be tailored to the country whose laws are most restrictive - a blow to free speech. The issue the case raises is of crucial importance: Will words that appear on the Internet be subject to defamation (and perhaps other) suits wherever they may be read - that is, in any of the world 1 s 3C 0-plus jurisdictions? And if not, where can suits be brought, and not brought? What is the dividing line?

11. Can we adapt existing law to cyberspace? Do we need new legislation? Problem comes when very idea of jurisdiction, based on geographic boundaries, is difficult to apply to Internet which does not recognize geographical distinctions What are options other than legislation? International/regional treaties International convention Development by system operators and Internet users of "rules" for behavior on Internet? Options available to individuals to regulate their conduct on a private basis - through contracts, private associations, custom etc.
