Although the courts have had only a handful of opportunities to address the legal issues raised by the use of this new medium, increased interest in the Internet by the legislative and executive branches, as well as by law enforcement agencies, suggests that the law will soon be called upon to resolve a variety of disputes on the information superhighway. Cases addressing Internet issues include United States v Morris, 928 F2d 504 (2d Cir 1991) (prosecution of the creator of the "Internet Worm"); Cubby, Inc. v CompuServe Inc., 776 F Supp 135 (S D NY 1991) (holding that a commercial computer bulletin board service is a distributor for purposes of libel); Sega Enterprises Ltd. v Maphia, 857 F Supp 679 (N D Cal 1994) (holding computer bulletin board service liable for copyright and trademark infringement); United States v LaMacchia, 871 F Supp 535 (D Mass 1994) (holding that person who distributed copyrighted software through a computer bulletin board service did not violate the wire fraud statute).

Bennahum, Mr. Gingrich's Cyber-Revolution, NY Times A19 (Jan 17, 1995); Aaron Zitner, Minority leaders move to take off in cyberspace, Boston Globe 97 (Feb 19, 1995); Patrick J.

Although the courts have had only a handful of opportunities to address the legal issues raised by the use of this new medium, increased interest in the Internet by the legislative and executive branches, as well as by law enforcement agencies, suggests that the law will soon be called upon to resolve a variety of disputes on the information superhighway. Cases addressing Internet issues include United States v Morris, 928 F2d 504 (2d Cir 1991) (prosecution of the creator of the "Internet Worm"); Cubby, Inc. v CompuServe Inc., 776 F Supp 135 (S D NY 1991) (holding that a commercial computer bulletin board service is a distributor for purposes of libel); Sega Enterprises Ltd. v Maphia, 857 F Supp 679 (N D Cal 1994) (holding computer bulletin board service liable for copyright and trademark infringement); United States v LaMacchia, 871 F Supp 535 (D Mass 1994) (holding that person who distributed copyrighted software through a computer bulletin board service did not violate the wire fraud statute).

Bennahum, Mr. Gingrich's Cyber-Revolution, NY Times A19 (Jan 17, 1995); Aaron Zitner, Minority leaders move to take off in cyberspace, Boston Globe 97 (Feb 19, 1995); Patrick J. Leahy, New Laws For New Technologies: Current Issues Facing the Subcommittee on Technology and the Law, 5 Harv J L & Tech 1 (Spring 1992). For a discussion of executive branch activity, see Peter H. Lewis, Gore Preaches, and Practices, the Techno-Gospel, NY Times Dl (Jan 17, 1994).
